A physician who has a group of 38 female patients aged 18 to 24 on a special diet wishes to estimate the effect of the diet on total serum cholesterol. For this group, their average serum cholesterol is 188.4 (measured in mg/100mL). Suppose that the total serum cholesterol measurements are normally distributed with standard deviation of 40.7. (a) Find a 95% confidence interval of the mean serum cholesterol of patients on the special diet.
The accompanying data represent the weights (in grams) of a simple random sample of 10 M&M plain candies. Determine the shape of the distribution of weights of M&Ms by drawing a frequency
histogram. Find the mean and median. Which measure of central tendency better describes the weight of a plain M&M?
