In a famous laboratory it is suspected that the results from two barometers don not agree.Ten samples were tested using equipment A and corresponding samples were tested using equipment B. Determine whether there is a significant difference in the two systems at the 99% confidence level. The results are follows: SAMPLE NUMBER EQUIPMENT A EQUIPMENT B 72 73 2 43 45 3 54 56 75 75 50 53 48 50 7 73 72 55 54 48 48 10 50 52

You were interested to know how long do students of mathematics in the university spend studying their math lessons in a day. You asked 10 random students and obtained the following data (in hours): 2, 1.5, 3, 2, 3.5, 1. 0.5, 3, 2, 4. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the average time that students spend studying math in a day. O 1.46 hours to 3.04 hours O none of the choices. O 1.31 hours to 3.19 hours O 0.95 hours to 3.55 hours
Refer to the data set of 20 randomly selected presidents given below. Treat the data as a sample and find the proportion of presidents who were taller than their opponents. Use that result to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population percentage. Based on the result, does it appear that greater height is an advantage for presidential candidates? Why or why not? Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of presidents who were taller than their opponents. If greater height was an advantage, then taller candidates should have won (more than,less than,exactly) 50% of the elections. In this case, greater height (appears,does not appear) to be an advantage for presidential candidates because the confidence interval (does,does not) include 50%.
A telephone service representative believes that the proportion of customers completely satisfied with their local telephone service is different between the South and the Northeast. The representative's belief is based on the results of a survey. The survey included a random sample of 700700 southern residents and 580580 northeastern residents. 49%49% of the southern residents and 42%42% of the northeastern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 80%80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions. Step 2 of 3: Find the value of the standard error. Round your answer to three decimal places.
