Suppose 400 random samples (each of size 25) are drawn from a population of male adults whose weights are approximately Normally distributed with mean 171.8 Ib and standard deviation 6.9 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 = and oz = respectively. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) (b) It can be expected that sample means fall between 170.1 lb and 172.8 lb, both inclusive (2 and s). (Round to the nearest integer.)

2) In the population, IQ scores are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 15. We repeatedly pulled random samples of 50 individuals from the population and measured their IQ and the resulted mean was 92 with a standard deviation of 8. Test at a =0.05 significance if there is any statistically significant difference in the variance of the result. D. Focus DELL
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.

To compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 42 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.7 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 45 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.4 feet. At a = 0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles? Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. Complete parts (a) rari rz (b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s).

Suppose a professor uses a normal distribution to assign grades in her math class. • She assigns an A to students scoring more than 1.9 standard deviations above the mean. • She assigns an F to students scoring more than 2.2 standard deviations below the mean. She assigns a B to students who Score between 1 and 1.9 standard deviations above the mean. • She assigns a D to students who Score between 1.2 and 2.2 standard deviations below the mean. • All other students get a C. Use the Cumulative Z-Score Table to answer the following questions. The Z-Score Table can be found below by selecting "Read". Write your answer as a percent using 2 decimal places. What percent of the class receives each grade assuming the scores are normally distributed? Hint % will recieve an A % will recieve a B % will recieve a C % will recieve a D % will recieve an F
