Here are summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls: n = 36, x=3211.1 g, s= 689.4 g. Use a confidence level of 90% to complete parts (a) through (d) below.
Tina catches a 14-pound bass. She does not know the population mean or standard deviation. So she takes a sample of five friends and they say the last bass they caught was 9, 12, 13, 10, and 10 pounds. Find the t and calculate a 95% (α = .05) confidence interval.
A poll was conducted that asked 1010 people how many books they had read in the past year. Results indicated that x= 10.5 books and s= 16.6 books. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean number of books people read. Click the icon to view the table of areas under the t-distribution. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean number of books people read. (Use ascending order. Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Given below are the sodium contents in milligrams for seven brands of hot dogs rated as “very good” by Consumer Reports. Find a 99.9% confidence interval for the true mean amount of sodium for “very good” hotdogs. 400 470 350 365 270 550 530
Here are summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls: n=217, x=31.7hg, s=6.5hg. Construct a confidence interval estimate of the mean. Use a 98% confidence level. Are these results very different from the confidence interval 29.6hg<μ<32.6hg with only 17 sample values, x=31.1hg, and s=2.4hg? What is the confidence interval for the population mean μ? hg < μ < hg (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
In the 1992 presidential election, Alaska's 40 election districts averaged 2002 votes per district for President Clinton. The standard deviation was 566. (There are only 40 election districts in Alaska.) The distribution of the votes per district for President Clinton was bell-shaped. Let X = number of votes for President Clinton for an election district. (Source: The World Almanac and Book of Facts) Round all answers except part e. to 4 decimal places. Find the third quartile for votes for President Clinton. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
