The average number of pages per book from a library is unknown. A random sample of books from the library yields a sample mean of x¯=149.7 pages. Assume the sampling distribution of the mean has a standard deviation of σx¯=14.1 pages. Use the Empirical Rule to construct a 99.7% confidence interval for the true population mean number of pages.
In a random sample of twelvetwelve people, the mean driving distance to work was 24.624.6 miles and the standard deviation was 4.54.5 miles. Assume the population is normally distributed and use the t-distribution to find the margin of error and construct a 9999% confidence interval for the population mean muμ. Interpret the results.
The daily sleep duration among college students is normally distributed with a mean of 8.13 and standard deviation of 1.87. You want to use a sample size such that 95% of the averages fall within ±15±15 minutes (.25 of an hour) of the true mean of 8.13. Determine the smallest number of students you need to sample.
A sample data set, n = 115, shows human body temperatures with a mean of 99.6ºF. If the standard deviation σ is known to be 0.75ºF. Find the 99% confidence interval for μ.
In a simple random sample of 46 oral temperatures, the mean was 37.3 degrees Celsius with a standard deviation of 1.1 degrees Celsius. Use this sample to test the claim that the population mean of all oral temperatures is greater than 37 degrees Celsius, with significance level of 0.05. d.f.=45 to.005 = 2.690 to.01 = 2.412 to.025 2.014 to.05 = 1.679 to.10 = 1.301
A sample size of 100 from a population having a standard deviation =8 produced a mean of 40. The 99% confidence interval for the population mean (rounded to two decimals) is:
Create a 85% confidence interval for a population mean from a sample of size 65 with sample mean a = 11.7. The population standard deviation is known to be o = %3D 3.28. [three decimal accuracy] [three decimal accuracy]
An automobile manufacturer claims that their van has a 50.750.7 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the MPG for this van. After testing 2323 vans they found a mean MPG of 50.950.9 with a standard deviation of 2.02.0. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.10.1 level that the vans outperform the manufacturer's MPG rating? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 1 of 5 : State the null and alternative hypotheses.
A sample of n=17n=17 data values randomly selected from a normally distributed population has standard deviation s=6.8s=6.8. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation. Round your endpoints to one decimal place.
A random sample of 100 households was selected as part of a study on electricity usage, and the number of kilowatt-hours (kWh) was recorded for each household .The average usage was found to be 7.5 kWh. In a very large study in the previous year it was found that the standard deviation of the usage was 2.3 kWh.Assuming the standard deviation is unchanged and that the usage is normally distributed, calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean usage (round to two decimals)
Assume the height of men is normally distributed. A random sample of 25 men had an average height of 72.5 with a sample standard deviation of 4.0. Form a 95% confidence interval on the population mean. 5.
The population mean of a company's racing bicycles is 9.07 kg (20.0 1b) with a population standard deviation of 0.40 kg. If the distribution is approximately normal, determine (a) the percentage of bicycles less than 8.30 kg, (b) the percentage of bicycles greater than 10.00 kg, and (c) the percentage of bicycles between 8.00 and 10.10 kg.
