The physical fitness of an athlete is often measured by how much oxygen the athlete takes in (which is recorded in milliliters per kilogram, ml/kg). The mean maximum oxygen uptake for elite athletes has been found to be 69 with a standard deviation of 7.8. Assume that the distribution is approximately normal. a) Find the probability that an elite athlete has a maximum oxygen uptake of at least 90.8 ml/kg.

Researchers wanted to determine if carpeted rooms contained more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms. To determine the amount of bacteria in a room, researchers pumped the air from the room over a Petri dish at the rate of 1 cubic foot per minute for eight carpeted rooms and eight uncarpeted rooms. Colonies of bacteria were allowed to form in the 16 Petri dishes. The results are given in the table below. Assume the distribution to be approximately normal. Do carpeted rooms have more bacteria than uncarpeted rooms? Carpeted Rooms Uncarpeted Rooms 11.7 12.0 8.2 8.3 7.1 3.8 13.1 7.3 10.6 12.0 10.1 11.1 14.8 10.3 14.0 13.7 What is the critical value(s) for this hypothesis test if group 1 is the carpeted rooms and group 2 is the uncarpeted rooms. 1.895 2.306 2.365 1.833 1.860
