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.
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.
A newspaper article noted that the mean life span for 35 male symphony conductors was 73.2 years with a standard deviation of 8.7 . Males in the general population have a mean life span of 69.5 years. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that male symphony conductors have a mean life span that is greater than 69.5 years. a. Define the parameter A. mu = The mean life span of the 35 male symphony conductors in the sample B. p = The proportion of all male symphony conductors who life more than 69.5 years C. mu = The mean life span of all male symphony conductors D. mu = The mean life span of all males b. State the null and alternative hypotheses A. Upper H 0 : mu equals 73.2 Upper H 1 : mu greater than 73.2 B. Upper H 0 : mu equals 69.5 Upper H 1 : mu greater than 69.5 C.

Systolic blood pressure levels above 120 mm Hg are considered to be high. For the 100 systolic blood pressure levels listed in the accompanying data set, the mean is 128.86000 mm Hg and the standard deviation is 15.28254 mm Hg. Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the sample is from a population with a mean greater than 120 mm Hg.LOADING...
