- You measure 27dogs' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 63 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 6.1 ounces. Based on this, what is the maximal margin of error associated with a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean dog weight.A fitness center is interested in finding a 98% confidence interval for the mean number of days per week that Americans who are members of a fitness club go to their fitness center. Records of 252 members were looked at and their mean number of visits per week was 2.5 and the standard deviation was 1.9. a. To compute the confidence interval use a ? distribution. b. With 98% confidence the population mean number of visits per week is between and visits. c. If many groups of 252 randomly selected members are studied, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population mean number of visits per week and about percent will not contain the true population mean number of visits per week.A researcher wants to compare the effectiveness of two different study techniques for a test. The mean test score for the first technique is 75 with a standard deviation of 5, and the mean test score for the second technique is 80 with a standard deviation of 4. The sample size for each group is 20. What is the 95% Confidence Interval for the difference in the mean test scores for the two techniques?
- A new drug is being tested to see if it reduces the frequency of migraines. Study participants were divided into two groups. 49 participants in group 1 received the medication; 42 participants in group 2 received a placebo. After a period of six months, group 1 had a mean of 4 migraines. It is known that the population standard deviation for this group is 1.3 migraines. Group 2 had a mean of 5.4 migraines. The population standard deviation for this group is 1.7 migraines. Can we conclude that the medication reduces the population mean number of migraines? Use αα =0.01. Note: If t-test, then unequal variances are assumed. Question a)Let: μ1μ1 = the population mean number of migraines with the medication μ2μ2 = the population mean number of migraines with the placebo (Step 1) State the null and alternative hypotheses by selecting the appropriate symbol, and identify which tailed test: H0:H0: μ1μ1 μ2μ2 H1:H1: μ1μ1 μ2μ2 Which tailed test…How would you solve this?Many people consider their smart phone to be essential! Communication, news, Internet, entertainment, photos, and just keeping current are all conveniently possible with a smart phone. However, the battery better be charged or the phone is useless. Battery life of course depends on the frequency, duration, and type of use. One study involving heavy use of the phones showed the mean of the battery life to be 11.25 hours with a standard deviation of 3.3 hours. Then the battery needs to be recharged. Assume the battery life between charges is normally distributed. (a) Find the probability that with heavy use, the battery life exceeds 12 hours. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)(b) You are planning your recharging schedule so that the probability your phone will die is no more than 5%. After how many hours should you plan to recharge your phone? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of an hour.) hours

Random samples of 20 AP Statistics students and 20 non AP Statistic students were taken. AP Statistics students had a mean GPA of 3.335 with a standard deviation of 0.557. Non AP Statistics students had a mean GPA of 3.04 with a standard deviation of 0.685. Assume the distribution of all AP Statistics scores are normally distributed. Use a 95% confidence interval for the true difference in average GPAS for AP Statistics and non AP Statistics students to determine if one group has a higher GPA than the other.In a random sample of 91 college students, the average number of Discord messages handled in one day is 216. The 95% confidence interval for the mean number of messages handled by students daily is given as 210 to 222. a. What is the population standard deviation? b. If the number of samples were doubled, what would be the new confidence interval (keeping the same confidence level?) Please include any equations used so I can fully learn this.
