An investigation of the ability of a hybrid tomato plant to produce a certain protein found that the amount x of the protein produced in the plant had a mean of 109.1 micrograms per gram of fresh weight with a standard deviation of 7.2. Consider a random sample of n = 64 hybrid tomato plants and let x represent the sample mean amount of the protein produced. Would it be expected to observe a value of x less than 107 micrograms per gram of fresh weight? Explain. Consider an event with a probability less than 0.05 unlikely. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box within your choice. (Round to four decimal places as needed.) O A. It would be expected to observe a value of x less than 107 micrograms per gram of fresh weight because the probability of such an event is which is not unlikely. OB. It would not be expected to observe a value of x less than 107 micrograms per gram of fresh weight because the probability of such an event is which is not unlikely. OC.

A study of parental empathy for sensitivity cues and baby temperament (higher scores mean more empathy) was performed. Let x1 be a random variable that represents the score of a mother on an empathy test (as regards her baby). Let x2 be the empathy score of a father. A random sample of 33 mothers gave a sample mean of x1 = 69.72. Another random sample of 38 fathers gave x2 = 57.68. Assume that Population Standard Deviation1 = 11.97 and Population Standard Deviation2 = 11.86. (a) Let Population Standard Deviation1 be the population mean of x1 and let Population Standard Deviation2 be the population mean of x2. Find a 99% confidence interval for Population Standard Deviation1 – Population Standard Deviation2. (Round your answers to two decimal places.

Unfortunately, arsenic occurs naturally in some ground water. A mean arsenic level of u = 8 parts per billion (ppb) is considered safe for agricultural use. A well in Los Banos is used to water cotton crops. This well is tested on a regular basis for arsenic. A random sample of 37 tests gave a sample mean of = 7.3ppb arsenic. It is known that o = 1.9 ppb for this type of data. Does this information indicate that the mean level of arsenic in this well is less than 8 ppb? Use the classical approach. Use a = 0.01 What is the Decision (step 5) for this problem? There is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level of significance to show the mean arsenic level in the Los Banos well is less than 7.3 ppb. O There is sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level of significance to show the mean arsenic level in the Los Banos well is less than 8.0 ppb. There is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level of significance to show the mean arsenic level in the Los Banos well is less than 8.0 ppb. O There is…
An investigation of the ability of a hybrid tomato plant to produce a certain protein found that the amount x of the protein produced in the plant had a mean of 105.2 micrograms per gram of fresh weight with a standard deviation of 7.1. Consider a random sample of n equals 67 hybrid tomato plants and let x overbar represent the sample mean amount of the protein produced. Would it be expected to observe a value of x overbar less than 104 micrograms per gram of fresh weight? Explain. Consider an event with a probability less than 0.05 unlikely.
Listed in the data table are amounts of strontium-90 (in millibecquerels, or mBq, per gram of calcium) in a simple random sample of baby teeth obtained from residents in two cities. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed populations. Do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean amount of strontium-90 from city #1 residents is greater than the mean amount from city #2 residents. a. The test statistic is (Round to two decimal places as needed.) b. The P-value is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

An article presents the results of a study in which the weights of 295 eggs from 27 week-old breeding hens averaged 54.1 g with a standard deviation of 4.4 g, and weights of 295 eggs from 59 week-old hens averaged 72.7 g with a standard deviation of 4.7 g.

A study was undertaken to compare the average high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels of normal and obese adults in a certain community. HDL levels of a random sample of adults from this community were measured (in milligrams per deciliter or mg/dL) and presented below. Assume that the HDL levels of both the normal and obese adults follow the normal distribution with unknown but equal population variances. Is there a significant difference between the average HDL levels of normal and obese adults? Use a 5% level of significance.
