During the nutrition research, the amount of consumed kilocalories per day was measured for 18 people - 10 women and 8 men. Results are as follows: Women: 2026, 1600, 1700, 1950, 1922, 1786, 1712, 1777, 2006, 1832; Men: 2170, 2557, 2384, 2427, 2334, 2228, 2161, 2459. Calculate a 90% confidence interval on the mean for women and men separately. Assume distribution to be normal. Round your answers to the nearest integer (e.g. 9876). Women: i Men: i
A statistics teacher taught a large introductory statistics class, with 500 students having enrolled over many years. The mean score over all those students on the first midterm was u = 88 with standard deviation o = 10. One year, the teacher taught a %3D much smaller class of only 25 students. The teacher wanted to know if teaching a smaller class was more effective and students performed better. We can consider the small class as an SRS of the students who took the large class over the years. The average midterm score was = 78. The hypothesis should be: a. Ho: H = 78 vs. Ha: H = 88. %3D O b. Ho: µ = 88 vs. Ha: µ 78 %3D Ο d. Ho: μ-88 νs. Ha: μ >88. %3D
100 students take a test in 2018. The average score was 75 and the standard deviation of the final exams scores was 5. The following year (2019), the professor changed her teaching style, and then taught the class to 90 students, gave the same exam, and found an average score of 80 and a standard deviation of 8.. Compute the 95% confidence interval for the final exam score in ECON 540 for 2018. Interpret the interval.
A performance analyst simulated a computer system a total of 10 times, each simulation run independent of all the others. She calculated and recorded the sample means for system response time from each of the 10 runs, coming up with the following data: 2,5,17,3,9,6,4,25,8,1(a) What is the confidence interval with a 95% confidence level for the mean response time? (b) The performance analyst was concerned that the width of the confidence interval was too large, and consulted one of her colleagues (who never took simulation and modeling). He assured her that the width of the confidence interval was large because of the two large "outliers," the values 17 and 25, and that she could reduce the width of the confidence interval simply by discarding these values. She tried this, and discovered that the width of the interval did indeed go down substantially. Is this a valid method? Why or why not?
The mean test score for a simple random sample of n=100 students was =80. The population standard deviation of test scores is σ=15. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean test score μ.

One scientist wondered if there was a difference in the average daily intake of dairy products between men and women. He took a sample of n1 = 50 adult men and n2 = 50 adult women and recorded their daily intake of dairy products in grams per day. A summary of the sample results is presented in the table. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the average daily intake of dairy products for men and women. Can it be concluded that there is a difference in the average daily intakes for men and women?

The manager of a fleet of automobiles is testing two brands of radial tires and assigns one tire of each brand at random to the two rear wheels of eight cars and runs the cars until the tires wear out.
