In the population of senior students at Shermer High School, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.64. In a random sample of 100 students from this population, the proportion who plan to attend college is 0.75. We would call the value 0.64 a P-value. z-score. parameter statistic significance level.
Allen's hummingbird (Selasphorus sasin) has been studied by zoologist Bill Alther.† Suppose a small group of 19 Allen's hummingbirds has been under study in Arizona. The average weight for these birds is x = 3.15 grams. Based on previous studies, we can assume that the weights of Allen's hummingbirds have a normal distribution, with ? = 0.36 gram.

Total plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person undergoing surgery. Plasma volume is influenced by the overall health and physical activity of an individual. Suppose that a random sample of 50 male firefighters are tested and that they have a plasma volume sample mean of x = 37.5 ml/kg (milliliters plasma per kilogram body weight). Assume that ? = 7.20 ml/kg for the distribution of blood plasma.

Solvent cement is used to join PVC joints. Researchers are interested in predicting the amount of time is needed for the joint to set (measured in hours) as it is related to temperature measured in degrees F for 4 to 8-inch diameter pieces. A random sample of PVC joints was taken and a linear regression model was found. Use the following output and the fact that R2 = 0.965 to answer the following questions. 7. Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the true slope. 8. The researchers find the predicted value for a temperature of 200 F is -3.507 hours. What is the most likely reason for this nonsensical answer?
A physical therapist wanted to know whether the mean step pulse of men was less than the mean step pulse of women. She randomly selected 54 men and 70 women to participate in the study.

I have asked this question twice and both times it has been wrong. Answer given F=.82 and .77 both these are incorrect. A bakery is considering buying one of two gas ovens. The bakery requires that the temperature remain constant during a baking operation. A study was conducted to measure the variance in temperature of the ovens during the baking process. The variance in temperature before the thermostat restarted the flame for the Monarch oven was 3.3 for 22 measurements. The variance for the Kraft oven was 4 for 25 measurements. Does this information provide sufficient reason to conclude that there is a difference in the variances for the two ovens? Assume measurements are normally distributed and use a 0.02 level of significance.
