From generation to generation, the mean age when smokers first start to smoke varies. However, the standard deviation of the age when smokers first start to smoke remains constant at around 2.1 years. The American Lung Association claims that the mean age when smokers first start to smoke is at least 17. A survey of 40 randomly selected smokers of this generation was done and it was found that the mean age when smokers first started to smoke was 18.1. Is there enough evidence to reject the claim? Describe what a Type I error is for this situation. Describe what a Type II error is for this situation.
A random sample of 46 adult coyotes in a region of northern Minnesota showed the average age to be x=2.07 years with sample staved deviation s=0.88 years. However, it is thought that the overall population mean age of coyotes is u=1.75. Do the sample data indicate that coyotes in this region of northern Minnesota tend to live longer than the average of 1.75 years? Use a=0.01
Deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) are small rodents native of North America. Théir adult body lengths (excluding tail) are known to vary approximately Normally, with mean p= 86 millimeters (mm) and standard devlation a = 8 mm. A researcher uses a random sample of 14 deer mic
The mean travel time from one stop to the next on the Coast Starlight Amtrak is 129 minutes, with a standard deviation of 113 minutes. The mean distance travelled from one stop to the next is 108 miles with standard deviation of 99 miles. The correlation between travel time and distance is 0.636. a). Find the equation of the regression line for predicting travel time.
The annual per capita consumption of oranges (in pounds) in the United States can be approximated by a normal distribution. The mean annual per capita of oranges is 19.2 with a standard deviation of 4 pounds. what annual per capita consumption of oranges represents the 3rd quartile?
Peak expiratory flow (PEF) is a measure of a patient’s ability to expel air from the lungs. Patients with asthma or other respiratory conditions often have restricted PEF. The mean PEF for children free of asthma is 306. An investigator wants to test whether children with chronic bronchitis have restricted PEF. A sample of 50 children with chronic bronchitis is studied, and their mean PEF is 274 with a standard deviation of 59. When you run the appropriate test at a = 0.05, the appropriate conclusion to whether there statistical evidence of a lower mean PEF in children with chronic bronchitis is?
