data consist of height measurements in centimeters of 5 randomly selected children at ages 3 and 5. Assume data are observed from 2 independent normal populations. find a 95% confidence interval of the form (a,b) with -inf < a < b < +inf for the difference in height among children between ages 3 and 5

A researcher collected sample data for 10 middle-aged women. The sample had a mean serum cholesterol level (measured in milligrams per one hundred milliliters) of 189.6, with a standard deviation of 9. Assuming that serum cholesterol levels for middle-aged women are normally distributed, find a 95% confidence interval for the mean serum cholesterol level of all women in this age group. Give the lower limit and upper limit of the 95% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to one decimal place. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) Lower limit: Upper limit: X
A data set includes 103 body temperature of healthy adult humans having a mean of 98.1F and standard deviation of 0.56 F . Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean body temperature of all healthy humans. What does the same suggest about the use of 98.6F as mean body temperature?
A researcher collected sample data for 17 women ages 18 to 24. The sample had a mean serum cholesterol level (measured in mg/100 mL) of 188.4, with a standard deviation of 9.2. Assuming that serum cholesterol levels for women ages 18 to 24 are normally distributed, find a 90% confidence interval for the mean serum cholesterol level of all women in this age group. Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the 90% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to one decimal place.
