Suppose 200 random samples (each of size 25) are drawn from a population of male adults whose weights are approximately Normally distributed with mean 175.3 lb and standard deviation 7.5 lb. Sample means are recorded to the nearest 0.1 lb. Click here to view page 1 of the standard normal distribution table. Click here to view page 2 of the standard normal distribution table (a) The expected value and standard deviation of the sample mean X is uz =D and oz = respectively. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) (b) It can be expected that sample means fall between 172.7 lb and 176.7 lb, both inclusive (2 and s). (Round to the nearest integer.)

Suppose that for a random sample of 250 firms that revalued their fixed assets, the mean ratio of debt to tangible assets was 0.629, and the sample standard deviation was 0.177. For an independent random sample of 450 firms that did not revalue their fixed assets, the mean ratio of debt to tangible assets was 0.599, and the sample standard deviation was 0.163. Assuming that the population distributions are normal with equal variances, find a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. E Click the icon to view a table of upper critical values of Student's t distribution. A 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
According to insurance records, a car with a certain protection system will be recovered 94% of the time. If 300 stolen cars are randomly selected, would it be unusual for 280 stolen cars to be recovered? In other words, is 280 more than 2 standard deviations above the mean? Note: Since np(1 - p) > 10 then we can assume the data approximates a normal distribution.
Suppose x has a distribution with a mean of 13.9 and a standard deviation of 2.1. Random samples of size n=49 are drawn. What would be the mean and standard deviation of the x̄ distribution?
Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.8 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 242samples is 5.2 ppm with a variance of 1.001.00. Does the data support the claim at the 0.05 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places. Specify if the test is one-tailed or two-tailed. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places. Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
A person's blood glucose level and diabetes are closely related. Let x be a random variable measured in milligrams of glucose per deciliter (1/10 of a liter) of blood. Suppose that after a 12-hour fast, the random variable x will have a distribution that is approximately normal with mean μ = 86 and standard deviation o = 23. Note: After 50 years of age, both the mean and standard deviation tend to increase. For an adult (under 50) after a 12-hour fast, find the following probabilities.

A math teacher claims that the mean scores on a math assessment test for fourth grade boys and girls are equal. The mean score for 13 randomly selected boys is 151 with a standard deviation of 36, and the mean score for 15 randomly selected girls is 149 with a standard deviation of 34. At α = 0.01, can you reject the teacher's claim? Assume the populations are normally distributed and the population variances are equal.
A population of size 20 is sampled without replacement. The standard deviation of the population is 0.35. We require the standard error of the mean to be no more than 0.15. What is the minimum sample size?
