Part 1 of 3: The age when smokers first start from previous studies is normally distributed with a mean of 13 years old with a population standard deviation of 1.9 years old. A survey of smokers of this generation was done to estimate if the mean age has changed. The sample of 32 smokers found that their mean starting age was 14.3 years old. Find the 3-decimal small value of the 95% confidence interval of the mean Part 2 of 3 Find the 3-decimal large value of the 95% confidence interval of the mean Part 3 of 3 Find the 3-decimal margin of error
QUESTION 18 In a bakery, a sample of 19 days was taken to study the daily sales. It was found that the mean daily sales are 124 with a sample standard deviation is 68. The 98 percent upper confidence limit for the population mean a daily sale would be? (Round answer to two decimal places ex. 2.09)
Suppose a randomly selected sample of n = 62 men has a mean foot length of x = 28 cm, and the standard deviation of the sample is 2 cm. Calculate an approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean foot length of men. (Round the answers to one decimal place.) In the study, n = 45 men were put on a diet. The men who dieted lost an average of 5.6 kg, with a standard deviation of 3.6 kg. (a) Compute the standard error of the mean for the men who dieted. (Round the answer to two decimal places.)kg(b) Compute an approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean weight loss for the men who dieted. (Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.)An approximate 95% confidence interval is to kg

A researcher is interested in finding a 95% confidence interval for the mean number minutes students are concentrating on their professor during a one hour statistics lecture. The study included 133 students who averaged 36.1 minutes concentrating on their professor during the hour lecture. The standard deviation was 13.4 minutes. Round answers to 3 decimal places where possible. b. With 95% confidence the population mean minutes of concentration is between and minutes. c. If many groups of 133 randomly selected members are studied, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population mean minutes of concentration and about percent will not contain the true population mean minutes of concentration.

The mayor is interested in finding a 90% confidence interval for the mean number of pounds of trash per person per week that is generated in the city. The study included 212 residents whose mean number of pounds of trash generated per person per week was 37.9 pounds and the standard deviation was 7.7 pounds. Round answers to 3 decimal places where possible. b. With 90% confidence the population mean number of pounds per person per week is between _______ and ________ pounds. c. If many groups of 212 randomly selected members are studied, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About __________ percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population mean number of pounds of trash generated per person per week and about ____________ percent will not contain the true population mean number of pounds of trash generated per person per week.
In order to construct a confidence interval for the population variance, a random sample of n observations is drawn from a normal population. Use this information to find x²a/2, df and x²1-a/2, df under the following scenarios. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places. You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or Ftable) X²al2,df a. A 95% confidence level with n = 9. b. A 95% confidence level with n = 40. c. A 99% confidence level with n = 9. d. A 99% confidence level with n = 40. X²1-a/2,df
