Concerns about climate change and CO, reduction have initiated the commercial production of blends of biodiesel (e.g., from renewable sources) and petrodiesel (from fossil fuel). Random samples of 41 blended fuels are tested in a lab to ascertain the bio/total carbon ratio. (a) If the true mean is .9220 with a standard deviation of 0.0060, within what interval will 90 percent of the sample means fall? (Round your answers to 4 decimal places.) The interval is from to (b) If the true mean is .9220 with a standard deviation of 0.0060, what is the sampling distribution of X? 1. Exactly normal with u=.9220 and o = 0.0060. 2. Approximately normal with u= .9220 and o = 0.0060. 3. Exactly normal with u=.9220 and o = 0.0060 //41. 4. Approximately normal with u=.9220 and oz = 0.0060 //41.

In the year 2033, katy perry is a leading traveling nurse. Katy is interested in reducing the mean recovery time for patients after experiencing a serious injury (assume recovery times are normally distributed). Suppose the mean recovery time is presently 8.6 months. Katy takes a random sample of 46 patients that have experienced serious injury to participate in a new treatment program and finds the sample mean is 8.1 months and a sample standard deviation of 1.2 months. Using α = 0.05, answer the following questions. g) What is the interpretation (not your conclusions) of the p value in the context of the problem you found in part e? h) What are your conclusions in the context of the problem? Relate your conclusions to the test statistic and critical value, confidence interval and p value.
