QUESTION 6 The temperature readings for 20 spring days in Manila are normally distributed with a mean of 65.5 degrees Fahrenheit and a standard deviation of 4.5 degrees. Determine the 90% confidence interval estimate for the spring mean temperature. You are told that Za = 0.05 = 1.645 O Lower bound = 63.84 degrees; upper bound = 67.15 degrees O Lower bound 67.15 degrees; upper bound = 63.84 degrees O Lower bound = 63.52 degrees; upper bound = 67.47 degrees O Lower bound = 67.47 degrees; upper bound = 63.52 degrees

The mean change in muscle thickness observed after a 4-week training regimen was 4 mm, and the 95% confidence interval (CI) for mean change was (-0.5, 8.5). Which is the best scientific conclusion for the effectiveness of this regimen ?
Find the 90% confidence interval for the variance and standard deviation of the ages of students at Arcanum high school if a sample of 24 students has a standard deviation of 2.3 years. Assume the variable is normally distributed.
It seems these days that college graduates who are employed full time work more than 40 hour weeks. Data are available that can help us decide if this is true. A survey was recently sent to a group of adults selected at random. There were 22 respondents who were college graduates employed full time. The mean number of hours worked per week by these 22 respondents was 43 hours, with a standard deviation of 8 hours. Assume that the population of hours worked per week by college graduates employed full time is normally distributed with mean. Can we conclude that mean is greater than 40 hours? Use the 0.1 level of significance. Perform a one tailed test, and complete the parts below.
A researcher is interested in learning about average online hours per day for Camosun College students. Data is gathered from 50 students - mean online hours is 7.52 with a standard deviation of 2.85. Calculate the 95% CI (or alpha at 0.05) and interpret your results in a full sentence. Now calculate a 99% CI for the above. How does your answer change? If the researcher sampled a group of 24 students and the new calculated mean and standard deviation are the same as with the larger group of 50, would the 99% CI change from b above? If yes, in what way?
In Professor Krugman’s economics course, the correlation between the students’ total scores prior to the final examination and their final‑examination scores is ?=0.5.r=0.5. The pre‑exam totals for all students in the course have mean 280280 and standard deviation 40.40. The final‑exam scores have mean 7575 and standard deviation 8.8. Professor Krugman has lost Julie’s ﬁnal exam but knows that her total before the exam was 300.300. He decides to predict her ﬁnal‑exam score from her pre‑exam total. (a) Which of the choices is the least‑squares regression line of ﬁnal‑exam scores on pre‑exam total scores in this course?

Part 1 of 4 Suppose that you randomly survey death records for people born in 1900 in Virginia and compared the life span of two different ethnicities. Of the 132 individuals sampled from ethnicity 1, the mean life span was 58.5 years with a standard deviation of 16.9 years. Of the 191 individuals sampled from ethnicity 2, the mean life span was 54.3 years with a standard deviation of 10.3 years. Conduct a hypothesis test with a 7% level of significance to see if the mean life spans in Virginia were the same for the two ethnicities. Step 1: State the null and alternative hypotheses.
