Online courses: A sample of 268 students who were taking online courses were asked to describe their overall impression of online learning on a scale of 1- 7, with 7 representing the most favorable impression. The average score was 5.73, and the standard deviation was 0.97. Part: 0 / 2 Part 1 of 2 (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean score. Round the answers to two decimal places.

The mean ACT score for 43 male high school students is 21.1 and the standard deviation is 5.0. The mean ACT score for 56 female high school students is 20.9 and the standard deviation is 4.7. At the 1% significance level, can you reject the claim that male and female high school students have equal ACT score averages? Be sure to use the p-value to make your conclusion.
Choose the appropriate statistical test. When computing, be sure to round each answer as indicated. A dentist wonders if depression affects ratings of tooth pain. In the general population, using a scale of 1-10 with higher values indicating more pain, the average pain rating for patients with toothaches is 6.8. A sample of 30 patients that show high levels of depression have an average pain rating of 7.1 (variance 0.8). What should the dentist determine? 1. Calculate the estimated standard error. (round to 3 decimals). [st.error] 2. What is thet-obtained? (round to 3 decimals). 3. What is the t-cv? (exact value) 4. What is your conclusion? Only type "Reject" or Retain"

Sex N Mean Standard deviation Males 59 2.91 1.46 Females 60 7.42 2.48 How different are male and female zebra finches in bill color?

Daily Driving The average number of miles a person drives per day is 24. A researcher wishes to see if people over age 60 drive less than 24 miles per day. She selects a random sample of 25 drivers over the age of 60 and finds that the mean number of miles driven is 23.4. The population standard deviation is 4.1 miles. At a = 0.01, is there sufficient evidence that those drivers over 60 years old drive less than 24 miles per day on average? Assume that the variable is normally distributed. Use the critical value method with tables. Part: 0 / 5 Part 1 of 5 State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis. Ho: (Choose one) O
A Two-Sample Hypothesis TestThe mean number of English courses taken in a two-year time period by male and female college students is believed to be about the same. An experiment is conducted and data are collected from 29 males and 16 females. The males took an average of three English courses with a standard deviation of 0.8. The females took an average of four English courses with a standard deviation of 1.0. Are the means statistically the same?

Thunderstorm Speeds A meteorologist who sampled 10 thunderstorms found that the average speed at which they traveled across a certain state was 12 miles per hour. The standard deviation of the sample was 2.2 miles per hour. Use a graphing calculator and round the answers to at least one decimal place. Part: 0 / 2 Part 1 of 2 Find the 85% confidence interval of the mean. Assume the variable is normally distributed. Part: 1/ 2 Part 2 of 2 If a meteorologist wanted to use the highest speed to predict the times it would take storms to travel across the state in order to issue figure would she likely use? what The meteorologist should use miles per hour for the prediction.
