An environmentalist estimates that the mean amount of waste recycled by adults in the United States is more than 0.75 pound per person per day. You want to test the claim. You find that the mean wasted recycled per person per day for a random sample of 16 adults in the United States is 0.8 pounds and the standard deviation is 0.21 pound. At a = 0.05, can you support the claim? t* s/Vn Z = + 0.75 + 0.75 Test statistic: Decision: Write your statement of your findings below:

You want to obtain a sample to estimate how much parents spend on their kids birthday parties. Based on previous study, you believe the population standard deviation is approximately σ=71.5σ=71.5 dollars. You would like to be 95% confident that your estimate is within 3 dollar(s) of average spending on the birthday parties. How many moms do you have to sample?n =
Overproduction of uric acid in the body can be an indication of cell breakdown. This may be an advance indication of illness such as gout, leukemia, or lymphoma.† Over a period of months, an adult male patient has taken seven blood tests for uric acid. The mean concentration was x = 5.39 mg/dl. The distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males can be assumed to be normal, with σ = 1.93 mg/dl. Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean concentration of uric acid in this patient's blood. What is the margin of error?

cor A company that makes cola drinks states that the mean caffeine content per 12-ounce bottle of cola is 55 milligrams. You want to test this claim. During your tests, you find that a random sample of thirty 12-ounce bottles of cola has a mean caffeine content of 57.4 milligrams. Assume the population is normally distributed and the population standard deviation is 7.3 milligrams. At a = 0.04, can you reject the company's claim? Complete parts (a) through (e).
