From generation to generation, the mean age when smokers first start to smoke varies. However, the standard deviation of that age remains constant at around 2.1 years. A survey of 42 smokers of this generation was done to see if the mean starting age is at least 19. The sample mean was 18.1 with a sample standard deviation of 1.3. Do the data support the claim at the 5% level?Note: If you are using a Student's t-distribution for the problem, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.) State the distribution to use for the test. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) X ~ , What is the test statistic?

Suppose that the recovery time from the infection with a certain virus is normally distributed with a mean of 6.5 days and a standard deviation of 1.5 days. Answer each question. Draw a graph illustrating the recovery time. Make sure to indicate 3 standard deviations from the mean. P(X>7.3)=? P(X <4.7)=? P(5.1<X<7.7)=? John's recovery time is lasting more than 9.2 days. Is it unusual (and should he be concerned yet)? What is the middle 90% recovery time? What is the 80%tile recovery time?
From generation to generation, the average age when smokers first start to smoke varies. However, the standard deviation of that age remains constant at around 2.1 years.

A Scenario: Jimmy store sells large tins of Tom Tucker Coffee. The deli uses a periodic review system. Inventory is checked every 10 days which more orders are needed for tins. Order lead time is 3 days. Average demand is 7 tins, so average demand during the reorder period and order lead time (13) is 91 tins. Standard deviation of demand during the same 13 day period is 17 tins.1. Calculate the restocking level ( Assume the desired level is 90%)2. Suppose standard deviation of demand during the 13-day period drops to 4 tins. What happened to restocking level? Explain why?3. Draw a saw-tooth diagram. Beginning inventory level is equal to restocking level and the demand rate is a constant 7 tins per day. What is the safety stock level? What is the average inventory level?
Andrew plans to retire in 40 years. He plans to invest part of his retirement funds in stocks, so he seeks out information on past returns. He learns that over the entire 20th century, the real (that is, adjusted for inflation) annual returns on U.S. common stocks had mean 8.7% and standard deviation 20.2%. The distribution of annual returns on common stocks is roughly symmetric, so the mean return over even a moderate number of years is close to Normal. What is the probability (assuming that past pattern of variation continues) that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 10%? What is the probability that the mean return will be less than 5%?
Suppose that prices of a gallon of milk at various stores in one town have a mean of $3.74 with a standard deviation of 0.09. Using Chev's theorem what is the minimum percentage of stores that sell a gallon of milk for between $3.56 and $3.92? Round your answer to 1 decimal place
In a recent year, grade 6 Ohio State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean score of 303.1 with a standard deviation of 36. Possible test scores could range from 0 to 1000. Assume that the scores were normally distributed. This is not a normal approximation, so do not correct for continuity. Find the probability that a student had a score higher than 295. Find the probability that a student had a score between 230 and 305. What is the highest score that would still place a student in the bottom 16% of the scores? If 4000 students are randomly selected, how many will have a test score that is less than 300? A random sample of 40 students is drawn from this population. What is the probability that the mean test score is greater than 290?
From generation to generation, the mean age when smokers first start to smoke varies. However, the standard deviation of that age remains constant at around 2.1 years. A survey of 38 smokers of this generation was done to see if the mean starting age is at least 19. The sample mean was 18.1 with a sample standard deviation of 1.3.

1. What is the value of the slope of the best fit trends line for the relationship between TDD and the depth of the active layer. 2. If α = 0.05, is this slope statistically significant? (yes/no) 3. Compute a new variable that states the depth of the active layer in inches. The conversion formula is: (depth in inches) = (depth in centimetres) / 2.54 What is the mean depth of the active layer, measured in inches?
