Q9 Let X represent the full height of a certain species of tree. Assume that X has a normal probability distribution with µ=215.5 ft and ơ=89.9 ft. You intend to measure a random sample of n=236 trees. What is the mean of the distribution of sample means? H x= What is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means (i.e., the standard error in estimating the mean)?

You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. The state of California has a mean annual rainfall of 22 inches, whereas the state of New York has a mean annual rainfall of 42 inches. Assume that the standard deviation for both states is 4 inches. A sample of 35 years of rainfall for California and a sample of 46 years of rainfall for New York has been taken.

Suppose we want to test the hypothesis that mothers with low socioeconomic status (SES) deliver babies whose birth weights are different from normal. To test this hypothesis, a random sample of 100 birth weights is selected from a list of full-term babies of SES mothers. The mean birth weight is found to be 115 oz. Suppose the average birth weight of all babies (based on nationwide surveys of millions of deliveries) is known to be 120 oz with = 24 oz. Set = .05 Assume all conditions are met, what is the p-value of their test? Give your answer to 4 decimal places.
