In a study of morphological variation in natural populations of fruit fly, it was reported that the mean wing length of 16 females, collected in a certain area, was 4.653 mm with s = 0.012 mm; and the mean wing length of 11 females, collected in a second area, was 4.274 mm with s = 0.02. Let the distribution of the wing length be normal, find a 98% confidence interval on the ratio of the two populations’ standard deviations.
The number of square feet per house are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 137 square feet and an unknown population mean. A random sample of 19 houses is taken and results in a sample mean of 1350 square feet.

When 89 people used the Atkins diet for one year, their mean weight change was 6.4 lb(based on data from "Comparison of the Atkins, Ornish, Weight Watchers, and Zone Diets for Weight Loss and Heart Disease Reduction," by Dansinger, et al., Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 293, No. 1).The standard deviation of weight change was s = 6.8 lb and calculate a 69% confidence interval for the mean weight change.Use 3 decimal places
8 holes drilled on a lathe were measured and its variance was found to be 2.81 cm. What is the tabular value of the upper bound of the confidence interval with 90% confidence of its variance?
A laboratory's measurement process for chloride concentrations was assessed by randomly inserting 15 specimens having a known concentration 10.0 mg/ l into the normal flow work over a period of two weeks. The work was arranged so that the observed values would be random and independent . The mean and sample variance of these 15 readings is estimated to be 9.46 mg/l and 1.44 (mg/ L)2. The confidence intervals for the true mean is
In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 42 subjects were treated with garlic in a processed tablet form. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before - after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 3.2 and a standard deviation of 17,1. Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean net change in LDL cholesterol after the garlic treatment. Click here to view at distribution table.

Fed-Ex claims that the variance of their 2-day package delivery is less than 0.75 days. A simple random sample of 24 deliveries showed a sample variance s2 = 0.81 days. Test the Fed-Ex claim at 95% confidence level.
The pH of rain, measured at a weather station in Michigan, was observed for 39 consecutive rain storms. The sample mean is 4.6982 and the sample variance is 0.39623. Obtain a 99% confidence interval for the mean pH of the population of storms at that location.
A study was conducted that measured the total brain volume (TBV) (in mm³) of patients that had schizophrenia and patients that are considered normal. The first table contains the TBV of the non- schizophrenic patients and the second table contains the TBV of schizophrenia patients. Compute a 99% confidence interval for the difference in TBV of non-schizophrenic patients and patients with Schizophrenia. Prior studies say nothing about the equality of variances.
