A researcher wants to estimate the difference between the mean score points of home and visitor teams in a basketball game. For this purpose, researcher randomly selects 24 basketball games and obtains their scores. In these games, home teams' mean score is 80 points with a standard deviation of 35 points while visitor teams' mean score is 79 points with a standard deviation of 10 points. Assuming equal population variances, find the (93)% confidence interval for the difference between the mean score points of home and visitor teams.
A researcher thinks that life time of light bulb has a normal distribution with mean of 3000 hours and variance of 50 hours.

The mean age when smokers first start is 13 years old with a population standard deviation of 1.8 years. A researcher thinks that smoking age has significantly changed since the invention of ENDS-electronic nicotine delivery systems. A survey of smokers of this generation was done to see if the mean age has changed. The sample of 35 smokers found that their mean starting age was 12.3 years old. Do the data support the- claim at the 5% significance level? What are the correct hypotheses? Ho: Select an answer e years H1: Select an answer e years Based on the hypotheses, find the following: Test Statistic z = (Round to 4 decimal places.) Critical Values = = (Round to 2 decimal places.) Based on the above we choose to Select an answer O that the mean age smokers The correct summary would be: Select an answer first start is different than 13.
It is known that the amount of glass households in Phoenix recycled 10 years ago is normally distributed with a mean of 3.6 pounds of glass per week. Phoenix municipal waste recently chose a simple random survey of 24 households and found they recycled an average of 3.8 pounds a week with a standard deviation of 0.5 pounds. Using a significance level of 0.05, is this evidence that the amount of glass recycling has changed? Write a one or two sentence summary in non-statistical language to describe what you have found, not how you found it. Your audience is people who have never had a statistics class (think of middle of the road 8th graders, not the really bright ones). Is there anything about the sample data suggesting that the methods we learned should not be applied?
