How do I find the Standard Deviation and Sample Mean?
we want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean. Based on previous evidence, researchers believe the population standard deviation is approximately 38.7. We would like to be 99% confident that the estimate is within 4 of the true population mean. How large of a sample size is required ?
This problem is fill in the blank. Just choose the correct answers. Thank you for your help A scientist has read that the mean birth weight, μ, of babies born at full term is 7.2 pounds. The scientist, believing that μ is less than this value, plans to perform a statistical test. She selects a random sample of birth weights of babies born at full term and finds the mean of the sample to be 6.9 pounds and the standard deviation to be 1.7 pounds. Based on this information, answer the questions below. What are the null hypothesis (H0) and the alternative hypothesis (H1) that should be used for the test? H0: (choose one) less than, less than or equal to, greater than, greater than or equal to, equal to, or not equal to. (choose one) 6.9 pounds, 7.2 pounds, or 1.7 pounds. H1: (Choose one) less than, less than or equal to, greater than, greater than or equal to, equal to, or not equal to. (Choose one) 6.9 pounds, 7.2 pounds, or 1.7 pounds. In the context…

Loretta, who turns 91 this year, has heard that the mean systolic blood pressure among the elderly is 120 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), but she believes that the actual value is higher. She bases her belief on a recently reported study of 19 randomly selected, elderly adults. The sample mean systolic blood pressure of the adults in the study was 121 mm Hg , and the sample standard deviation was 20 mm Hg. Assume that the population of systolic blood pressures of elderly adults is normally distributed. Based on the study, at the 0.1 level of significance, can it be concluded that μ , the mean systolic blood pressure among elderly adults, is greater than 120 mm Hg? Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table.
