A tire manufacturer hopes that their newly designed tires will allow a car traveling at sixty mph to come to a complete stop within an average of 125 feet after the brakes are applied. They will adopt the new tires unless there is strong evidence that the tires do not meet this objective (if the distance statistically greater than the expected, then it means the tires do not meet the objective). The distances for 9 sample stops on a test track were: 129, 128, 130, 132, 135, 123, 125, 128, and 130. What is the lower bound of 95% confidence interval for the population mean. 127.979 126.568 126.159 128.1115 none of above

A machine produces metal rods used in an automobile suspension system. A random sample of 15 rods is selected, and the diamęter is measured. The resulting data (in millimeters) are as follows: 8.24, 8.25, 8.20, 8.23, 8.24, 8.21, 8.26, 8.26, 8.20, 8.25, 8.23, 8.23 , 8.19, 8.27, 8.24. A conclusion has to be made at 1% significance that the mean rod diameter is greater than 8.20. What is the value of teale? Please report your answer in 3 decimal places.
The university administrator wants a quick estimate of the average course size, i.e. how many students are enrolled in one course on average. However, since he does not want the faculty to find out about his interest, he has decided to use the students as his help. He has decided to randomly select 100 students to find out and report to him the number or numbers of students in his course or courses. Thus, his estimate of the average course size is the average of the numbers reported by the students.(a) Does such a procedure serve his purpose?(b) If you answered yes to the previous question, explain why. If you answered no to the previous question, present a more efficient way.
For a population with a mean equal to 200 and a standard deviation equal to 30, calculate the standard error of the mean for the following sample sizes. a) 20 b) 40 c) 60 a) The standard error of the mean for a sample size of 20 is (Round to two decimal places as needed.) b) The standard error of the mean for a sample size of 40 is (Round to two decimal places as needed.) c) The standard error of the mean for a sample size of 60 is
The length of fish were measured at 3 different lakes. Is there evidence to suggest that the average length is not the same at all 3 locations? Lake 1: 3.5, 4.2, 2.1, 3.2, 1.7 Lake 2: 5.1, 6.2, 5.3,4.1 Lake 3: 5.6, 7.1, 6.4, 7.1, 6.4 What is your conclusion? There is not evidence that the mean length at one of the lakes is different then the others. There is evidence hat the mean length at a least one lake is different then the others.

In spite of the potential safety hazards, some people would like to have an Internet connection in their car. A preliminary survey of adult Americans has estimated this proportion to be somewhere around 0.30. Use the given preliminary estimate to determine the sample size required to estimate this proportion with a margin of error of 0.05.

Betty, an employee of Shining Sun Daycare Centerread an article in Healthy Child Magazine sayingthat the average 3-year-old child is 37 in. tall.Betty works with 10 3-year-olds at Shining Sun,so later that week, she measured the height ofeach child who had just turned or was about toturn 3 years old. Here are the descriptive statisticsfor the sample: M = 35, s = 3.1. State the nondirectional hypothesis.2. Determine the critical t for a = .05.3. Calculate t. Show your calculations.4. Is the height of 3-year-olds in Shining SunDaycare Center significantly different fromthe height given in the magazine?
