Total blood volume (in ml) per body weight (in kg) is important in medical research. For healthy adults, the red blood cell volume mean is about µ = 28 ml/kg. Red blood cell volume that is too low or too high can indicate a medical problem. Suppose that Roger has had seven blood tests, and the red blood cell volume sample mean was 32.7 ml/kg. Let x be a random variable that represents Roger’s red blood cell volume. Assume that x has a

Heavy smokers tend to have a high percentage of carboxyhemoglobin in their blood.† Let x be a random variable representing percentage of carboxyhemoglobin in the blood. For a person who is a regular heavy smoker, x has a distribution that is approximately normal. A random sample of n = 12 blood tests given to a heavy smoker gave the following results (percent carboxyhemoglobin in the blood). Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value a small amount and thereby produce a slightly more "conservative" answer. 9.3 9.6 10.3 9.8 11.3 12.2 11.6 10.3 8.9 9.7 13.4 9.9 (a) Use your calculator to calculate x and s.
