Workers at a certain soda drink factory collected data on the volumes (in ounces) of a simple random sample of 25 cans of the soda drink. Those volumes have a mean of 12.19 oz and a standard deviation of 0.12 oz, and they appear to be from a normally distributed population. If the workers want the filing process to work so that almost all cans have volumes between 11.98 oz and 12.58 oz, the range rule of thumb can be used to estimate that the standard deviation should be less than 0.15 oz. Use the sample data to test the claim that the population of volumes has a standard deviation less than 0.15 oz. Use a 0.01 significance level. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a Identify the nul and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below. OA. H: 0=0.15 oz H:a<0.15 oz OB H: 020.15 oz H:s<0.15 oz OC. H: 0=0.15 oz H: 0#0.15 oz OD. H:>0.15 oz H:0=0.15 oz b. Compute the test statistic. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) c. Find the P-value. Pwalue=O (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

The port of South Louisiana, located along the Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge, is the largest bulk cargo port in the world. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reports that the port handles a mean of 4.5 million tons of cargo per week. Assume that the number of tons of cargo handled per week is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 0.82 million tons. (keep 3 decimals in your answer) [Hint: since we are not going from the sample to the population, we do not need the standard error here] (1) What is the probability that the port handles less than 5 million tons of cargo per week? ________ (2) What is the probability that the port handles 3 million or more tons of cargo per week? __________ (3) What is the probability that the port handles between 3 million and 4 million tons of cargo per week? ___________ (4) Assume that 85% of the time the port can handle the weekly cargo volume without extending operating hours. What is the number of tons of cargo per…
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the mean life expectancy in 2015 for non‑Hispanic black females was 78.1 years. Assume that the standard deviation was 15 years, as suggested by the Bureau of Economic Research. The distribution of age at death, ?, is not normal because it is skewed to the left. Nevertheless, the distribution of the mean, x¯, in all possible samples of size ?n is approximately normal if ? is large enough, by the central limit theorem. Let x¯ be the mean life expectancy in a sample of 100 non‑Hispanic black females. Determine the interval centered at the population mean ? such that 95% of sample means x¯ will fall in the interval. Give your answers precise to one decimal What are the upper and lower limits?
The adult eastern hellbender (a type of giant salamander) has a length which is normally distributed with a mean of 31.8 cm and a standard deviation of 2.7 cm, while the adult Ozark hellbender has a length which is normally distributed with a mean of 34.9 and a standard deviation of 4.5. Random samples of a size 100 are selected of each species of hellbender. The box plots are created for each dataset. Which box plot will most likely have the larger interquartile range? O a. The IQR will be around the same for each. 0. O b. Either is equally likely to be larger than the other. 0 O c. The Ozark hellbenders. 0 O d. The eastern hellbenders. 0
The average annual rainfall in New York City follows a normal distribution with a mean of 49.9 inches and a standard deviation of 9.5 inches. On what percentage of years can we expect there to be between 40.4 and 59.4 inches of rain in New York City? (A) 100% B) 99.7% C) 95% D) 68%
The pulse rates of 176 randomly selected adult males vary from a low of 40 bpm to a high of 116 bpm. Find the minimum sample size required to estimate the mean pulse rate of adult males. Assume that we want 95% confidence that the sample mean is within 2 bpm of the population mean.
Because of different sales ability, experience, and devotion, the incomes of real estate agents vary considerably. Suppose that in a large city the annual income is normally distributed with a standard deviation of $15,000. A real estate industry expert claims that the mean annual income of all real estate agent in the city is equal to $79000. A sample of 30 real estate showed that their mean annual income was $84230. Test the manager's claim using a level of significance of 0.05. what is your conclusion
Reports on a student's test score such as the SAT or a child's height or weight usually give the percentile as well as the actual value of the variable. The percentile is just the cumulative proportion stated as a percent: the percent of all values of the variable that were lower than this one. The upper arm lengths of females in the United States are approximately Normal with mean 35.735.7 cm and standard deviation 2.12.1 cm, and those for males are approximately Normal with mean 39.139.1 and standard deviation 2.32.3 cm. Larry, a 6060‑year‑old male in the United States, has a upper arm length of 37.837.8 cm. What is his percentile? (Enter your answer rounded to two decimal places.)

The salaries of professional baseball players are heavily skewed right with a mean of $3.2 million and a standard deviation of $2 million. The salaries of professional football players are also heavily skewed right with a mean of $1.9 million and a standard deviation of $1.5 million. A random sample of 40 baseball players’ salaries and 35 football players’ salaries is selected. The mean salary is determined for both samples.
