Suppose the wrapper of a certain candy bar lists its weight as 2.16 ounces. Naturally, the weights of individual bars vary somewhat. Suppose also that the weights of these candy bars vary according to a normal distribution with mean 2.2 ounces and standard deviation 0.04 ounces. Round your answers to four decimal places. a. What proportion of candy bars weighs less than the advertised weight? b. What proportion of candy bars weighs more than 2.26 ounces? c. What proportion of candy bars weighs between 2.2 and 2.3 ounces?

A scale is known to be "low-calibrated" in that it measures an aluminum bar to be 4 grams lower than the actual weight. If ????μold is the mean of all possible measurements of the bar using the old calibration, and ????μnew is the mean of all possible measurements of the bar using a re-calibrated scale. It is desired that ????−????=4μnew−μold=4. Consider the test ?0:????−????=4H0:μnew−μold=4 vs. ?0:????−????≠4H0:μnew−μold≠4 Sample after calibration: mean is 95.8 , SD is 4.9 and sample size is 10 Sample before calibration: mean is 89.352 , SD is 4.2 and sample size is 62 We do not know population standard deviations. What is the p-value? (Hint: best to use software, or else the Desmos Calculator for the 2 sample T and Z test)

Bill Alther is a zoologist who studies Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna). (Reference: Hummingbirds, K. Long, W. Alther.) Suppose that in a remote part of the Grand Canyon, a random sample of six of these birds was caught, weighed, and released. The weights (in grams) were as follows. 3.7 2.9 3.8 4.2 4.8 3.1 The sample mean is = 3.75 grams. Let x be a random variable representing weights of hummingbirds in this part of the Grand Canyon. We assume that x has a normal distribution and ? = 0.64 gram. Suppose it is known that for the population of all Anna's hummingbirds, the mean weight is ? = 4.30 grams. Do the data indicate that the mean weight of these birds in this part of the Grand Canyon is less than 4.30 grams? Use ? = 0.10. Level of significance = .10 Null and alternate hypotheses. - H0: ? = 4.3 g; H1: ? < 4.3 g; left-tailed Sampling Distribution - The standard normal, since we assume that x has a normal distribution with known ?
