- A notable indicator of a baby's health is the weight gained in the first year of the baby's life. Assume that the population of all such weight gains for baby boys is approximately normally distributed. A study claimed that the mean of this population is 4.93 kg. As a practicing pediatrician, you want to test this claim. So, you select a random sample of 16 baby boys, and you record the weight each gained in their first year. Follow the steps below to construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean of all the weight gains for baby boys in their first year. Then state whether the confidence interval you construct contradicts the study's claim. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Click on "Take Sample" to see the results for your random sample. Sample standard Number of baby boys Sample mean deviation Take Sample 16 5.496 1.873 Enter the values of the sample size, the point estimate of the mean, the sample standard deviation, and the critical value you need for…Suppose that the number of points scored in a game comes from a normal population with an average of 12 points and a standard deviation of 9 points.

Do twenty-year-olds have a different number of cavities? The data show the results of a survey of 13 twenty-year-olds who were asked how many cavities they have had. Assume that the distribution of the population is normal. 9, 8, 8, 10, 10, 9, 9, 10, 6, 6, 9, 8, 8 What can be concluded at the α = 0.01 level of significance? The p-value = _______ (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) The p-value is _______ α Based on this, we should _________ the null hypothesis.If we meet these conditions, the sampling distribution of the mean will have a normal shape and ... The mean of the sampling distribution will be u, (i.e., the same as the population mean) and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be (that's the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size). In the AP Stats Guy video, he talks about the number of text messages his students send during class. Suppose the average number of text messages his students send during class is u = 30 text messages. If we take samples of say, n = 36 students at a time, we would expect the mean of the sampling distribution we create to be the same as the population mean, 30 text messages. If we can further say that standard deviation of the number of text messages is 12 text messages, by how much would we expect the sample means to vary? (hint, use the formula above) text messages
