In a test of the effectiveness of garlic for lowering cholesterol, 47 subjects were treated with garlic in a processed tablet form. Cholesterol levels were measured before and after the treatment. The changes (before - after) in their levels of LDL cholesterol (in mg/dL) have a mean of 2.9 and a standard deviation of 16.3. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean net change in LDL cholesterol after the garlic treatment. What does the confidence interval suggest about the effectiveness of garlic in reducing LDL cholesterol? Click here to view a t distribution table.

What is the confidence interval estimate of the population mean p? Omg/dL

What is the test statistic and p-value? Because the P-value is ▼ greater less than the significance level 0.05, there ▼ is not is sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a linear correlation between selling price (in hundred thousands) and the list price (in hundred thousands) of homes sold for a significance level of α=0.05.
Scores on a standardized exam are known to follow a normal distribution. A researcher estimates that the mean score of the exam to be between 151.85 and 154.15, with a 98% confidence interval. What is the margin of error?
Á study was conducted that examined the relationship between alcohol consumption and risk of heart attack. In all, 417 men, age 40 or older, were tracked over ten years and the number of that experienced a heart attack was recorded. The participants were grouped by those who totally abstained from alcohol and those that drank moderately. For the results given in the table below, use the chi-squared test to find the p value for NHST at the .05 level. (In SPSS use the Yates continuity correction value.)

Based on a recent study, the pH level of the arterial cord (one vessel in the umbilical cord) is normally distributed with mean 7.27and standard deviation of 0.11. Find the percentage of preterm infants who have the following arterial cord pH levels. a. pH levels between 7.00 and 7.50. b. pH levels over 7.35. a. The percentage of arterial cord pH levels that are between 7.00and 7.50 is __________%. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) b. The percentage of arterial cord pH levels that are over 7.35 is _______%. (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
Suppose that a Normal model describes furl economy (mile per gallon) for automobile and that a Saturn has a standardized score ( z score) of +2.2. This meatn taht Satturn.... gets 2.2 miler sper gallon. get 2.2 times the gas mileage of the avereage car. get 2.2 mpg more than the average car. have a standard deviation of 2.2 mpg achieve fuel eceonomy that is 2.2 standard deviations better thean the average car.
Diabetes Plasma-glucose levels are used to determine the pres- ence of diabetes. Suppose the mean In (plasma-glucose) concentration (mg/dL) in 35- to 44-year-olds is 4.86 with standard deviation = 0.54. A study of 100 sedentary people in this age group is planned to test whether they have a higher or lower level of plasma glucose than the general population. 7.7 If the expected difference is 0.10 In units, then what is the power of such a study if a two-sided test is to be used with a = .05? 7.8 Answer Problem 7.7 if the expected difference is 0.20 In units. 7.9 How many people would need to be studied to have 80% power under the assumptions in Problem 7.7?
The Merck Manual states that, for healthy adults, the mean number of milliliters of oxygen per deciliter of blood is 19.0. A company that sells vitamins claims that its multivitamin complex will increase the oxygen capacity of the blood. A random sample of 28 adults took the vitamin for six months. After blood tests, it was found that the sample mean was 20.7 ml of oxygen per deciliter of blood with a standard deviation of 6.7ml. a. At the 0.05 level, test the claim that the average oxygen capacity has increased. b. How much power do you have to detect a 3ml difference (from the null) in the average amount of oxygen in the blood? c. What sample size would you need to have 90% power to detect this observed difference?

I wanted to do a market research study estimating the average hourly wage earned by childcare workers in the bay area. How large does my sample need to be in order to have a margin of error that is less than $0.50 with a 95% confidence in the result. Assume that the standard deviation of the wages is $2 per hour.
