Assume that an intelligence test scores are distributed normallt with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. If you scored 124 on this intelligence test, what is your z-score on this distribution.
group of friends compares what they received while trick or treating. They find that the average number of pieces of candy received is 43, with standard deviation of 2. What is the z-score corresponding to 20 pieces of candy?
Forty refrigerators from two different models of a refrigerator manufacturer are compared to see if the smaller model uses less energy than the larger model. The energy was measured in kilowatt hours per month (kwh/mo). From years of testing these models, it is known that the standard deviation of kwh/mo is 34 kwh/mo for the smaller model and 40 kwh/mo for the larger one. From this survey, the sample means and standard deviations are 125 and 34, and 90 and 40, respectively. If we conduct a hypothesis test, the p-value is Group of answer choices 0.0000 0.0010 0.0004 0.0002
Times for a medical procedure are normally distributed. There are 2 methods. Method A has a mean of 25 minutes and a standard deviation of 8 minutes, while Method B has a mean of 29 and a standard deviation of of 4 minutes. Which method is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 27 minutes? Which procedure is preferred if the procedure must be completed within 35 minutes?
You are a teacher at a gifted school, and you feel that the newest class of students is even brighter than usual. The mean IQ at your school is 127, and the mean IQ of this new class is 134. In total, there are 32 students in this new class. Also, the standard deviation of the school’s IQ is 8. Use the eight steps to test whether this new class of students is significantly more intelligent than the school’s student body overall.
Mugs are packed into padded crates for shipping. Each crate contains 15 mugs. The mugs are normally distributed with a mean of 450g and a standard deviation of 5g. The weights of the empty crates are also normally distribute with a mean of 150g and a standard deviation of 13g.(a) Calculate the mean and variance for a fullncrate.(b) 90% of the full crates lie below a certainweight, what is that weight? use only maths and DO NOT USE THE EXCEL METHOD
Two thousand students took an exam. The scores on this exam are Normally distributed with mean =81 points and standard deviation =15 points. Then the middle 50% of the exam scores are between what two values?
To become an actuary, it is necessary to pass a series of 10 exams, including the most important one, an exam in probability and statistics. An insurance company wants to estimate the mean score on this exam for actuarial students who have enrolled in a special study program. They take a sample of 8 actuarial students in this program and find the mean of the sample is 6.0 with standard deviation of the sample 2.0. This sample will be used to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean score for actuarial students in the special study program. A 95% confidence interval for the mean score of actuarial students in the special program is from ________ to ________.

Derby Leicester is a city planner preparing for a meeting with the mayor. He would like to show that the population mean age of the houses on Lincoln Street is less than the population mean age of the houses on Maple Street so that more resources are allotted to repair Maple Street. Derby uses a previous study to assume that the population standard deviation for the ages of the houses is 7.72 years for Lincoln Street and 8.39 years for Maple Street. Due to limited time, Derby randomly selects a sample of houses on Lincoln Street and the houses on Maple Street from the city’s property records and then records the age of each house in years. The results of the samples are shown in the table below. Explain whether a hypothesis test for the difference between two means of independent samples is appropriate, and if so, determine the null and alternative hypotheses for this hypothesis test, where μ1 is the population mean age of the homes on Lincoln Street and μ2 is the population mean age…
Paint used to paint lines on roads must reflect enough light to be clearly visible at night. Researchers have 2 new types of paints they want to test paint type A and paint type B. For each paint type, they tested if there was statistical evidence the average reflectometer reading is greater than 35. To test each type of paint, they used 15 paint samples. Further, suppose the standard deviation is the same for both types of paints. The sample mean for paint type A was 39 and the sample mean for paint type B was 41.5. For both statistical tests, the significance level is set to .05.Which of the following is true? If they fail to reject the null hypothesis for paint type A we can conclude there is statistical evidence the average reflectometer for type A paint is 35. The p-value for the type B paint test is smaller. They rejected the null hypothesis for both paint types. Exactly two of the statements above are true. None are true.

Is when the population standard deviation and variance are unknown. Justin wants to know whether a commonly prescribed drug does improvethe attention span of students with attention deficit disorder (ADD). He knows that the mean attention span for students with ADD who are not taking the drug is 2.3 minutes long. His sample of 12 students taking the drug yielded a mean of 4.6 minutes. Justin can find no information regarding σx, so he calculated s2x =1.96. (1) Create your own example of a Related/Paired Samples t-Test. You don't have to solve this example, but I want you to demonstrate that you understand the methodology (the way a study is designed) of the Paired-Samples t-Test. Include the following: IV: DV: Null Hypothesis: Alternative Hypothesis: I want you to show me that you know how to solve and interpret the results from a Paired - Samples t-Test. 2.
