A newspaper infographic titled "Baby's First Photo Reveal" summarized data from a survey of 1,050 mothers with children under the age of 2. The infographic stated that 84% of moms post new baby photos from the delivery room. This information could be used to provide an estimate of the
proportion of new mothers who post pictures on social media from the delivery room. Assume that the sample is representative of the population of mothers with children under the age of 2 years.
In USE SALT
Use the five-step process for estimation problems (EMC°) to construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of mothers of children under the age of 2 years who post pictures of their new baby on social media from the delivery room. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)
Interpret the interval.
O We are 99% confident that the true proportion of mothers of children under the age of 2 years who post pictures of their new baby on social media from the delivery room falls within this interval.…
The National Center for Health Statistics reports that the average systolic blood pressure for males 35-44 years of age has a mean of 121. The
medical director of a large company believes the average systolic blood pressure for male executives 35-44 years of age at his company is different
from 121. He asks for male executives aged 35-44 to volunteer to participate in his study. He looks at the medical records of the 81 volunteers and
finds that the mean systolic blood pressure in this sample is 127.2 with a standard deviation of 28. Assume the population distribution is
approximately normal. Conduct a hypothesis test at the 0.05 significance level to test this claim.
What is the null hypothesis?
What is the alternative hypothesis?
What is the significance level?
What is the value of the test statistic? Report your answer to two decimal places.
