8.1.1 WP For a normal population with known variance σ²,
answer the following questions:
-
a. What is the confidence level for the interval x — 2.140/
√√n≤≤+2.140/√√n?
8.1.8 A civil engineer is analyzing the compressives trength of concrete. Compressive strength is normally distributed with σ2 = 1000(psi)2. A random sample of 12 specimens has a mean compressive strength ofx = 3250 psi.
a. Construct a 95% two-sided confidence interval on mean
compressive strength.
b. Construct a 99% two-sided confidence interval on mean
compressive strength. Compare the width of this confidence
interval with the width of the one found in part (a).
8.1.9Suppose that in Exercise 8.1.8 it is desired to estimate
the compressive strength with an error that is less than 15 psi at
99% confidence. What sample size is required?
8.1.12 Ishikawa et al. [“Evaluation of Adhesiveness of Acinetobacter sp. Tol 5 to Abiotic Surfaces,” Journal of Bioscience and
Bioengineering (Vol. 113(6), pp. 719–725)] studied the adhesion
of various biofilms to solid surfaces for possible use in environmental technologies. Adhesion assay is conducted by measuring
absorbance at A590. Suppose that for the bacterial strain Acinetobacter, five measurements gave readings of 2.69, 5.76, 2.67, 1.62,
and 4.12 dyne-cm2. Assume that the standard deviation is known
to be 0.66 dyne-cm2.
a. Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean adhesion.
b. If the scientists want the confidence interval to be no
wider than 0.55 dyne-cm2, how many observations should
they take?
