Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for how the average weight changes for a one hourincrease in sleep per night.Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the average weight given 6.5 hours of sleep pernight is obtained. Consider the following scenario to answer the questions below:Researchers would like to determine, for adults, if there is a linear relationship between number ofhours of sleep obtained per night and weight (in pounds). If so, the researchers would like a model thatwill estimate the weight of adults given the number of hours of sleep obtained per night. To answer thequestions, the following data was obtained:WeightHours of SleepWeightHours of Sleep1435.251098.751356.5513171401091226.31227.751217.151128.751221337.21301158.1384.351121463.51208.51218.111069.254.

A forestry researcher is conducting a study of trees in the upper midwest. He selects a random sample of 125 red maple trees and measures the trunk diameter of each. The mean of the sample is 25 inches with a standard deviation of 5.2 inches, use this to find a 95% confidence interval for the mean trunk diameter of all red maple trees.
According to a study of 90 truckers, a trucker drives, on average, 560 miles per day. If the standard deviation of the miles driven per day for the population of truckers is 40, find the 95% confidence interval of the mean number of miles driven per day by all truckers.
Assume a researcher wants to compare the mean Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) levels in two populations, individuals who drink alcohol and individuals who do not drink alcohol. The mean ALT levels for the individuals who do not drink alcohol is 32 with a standard deviation of 14, and 37 individuals were in the sample. The mean ALT levels for individuals who drink alcohol is 69 with a standard deviation of 19, and 38 individuals were in the sample. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval demonstrating the difference in means for those individuals who drink alcohol when compared to those who do not drink alcohol.

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.
