Question 2 2 marks A population is normally distributed with an unknown mean μ and unknown standard deviation σ. You collect a random sample of 24 measurements with sample mean7-55.9 and standard deviation-7.53. Use this information to answer the questions below (a) [0.5 mark] What is your 95% confidence İnterval for the population mean μ? (b) [1 mark] what is your best estimate for the population standard deviation σ? (c) [0.5 mark] If a fellow enginer tells you that the...
Suppose scores of a standardized test are normally distributed and have a known population standard deviation of 8 points and an unknown population mean. A random sample of 25 scores is taken and gives a sample mean of 93 points.

A simple random sample of size n is drawn from a population that is normally distributed. The sample mean, x overbarx, is found to be 107,and the sample standard deviation, s, is found to be 10. (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval about μ if the sample size, n, is 25. (b) Construct a 95% confidence interval about μ if the sample size, n, is 13. (c) Construct an 80% confidence interval about μ if the sample size, n, is...
Suppose that the lengths, in inches, of adult corn snakes are normally distributed with an unknown mean and standard deviation. A random sample of 38 snakes is taken and gives a sample mean of 51 inches and a sample standard deviation of 8 inches. The margin of error, for a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is determined to be 2.63. Find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population means using the Student's...
Let X be a normally distributed random variable with expected value and standard deviation 5. being 60 and 20, respectively. Let X, be the sample mean of a random sample of size n from X. A random sample of size 25 from X is given in the following table: 84.75534 37.3332 56.2749 27.09361 63.11717 46.38288 73.65585 50.46811 44.61746 91.7605 78.05359 33.82873 86.2026 51.86157 75.01817 52.57203 19.59978 80.21883 72.44076 42.92938 68.02203 68.10625 61.5187 81.53383 60.46798 (i) Determine a 95% confidence interval...
Answers only is okay! Construct the indicated confidence interval for the population mean μ using the t-distribution. Assume the population is normally distributed. c=0.99, x=13.1, s=3.0, n= 6 Construct the indicated confidence interval for the population mean μ using the t-distribution. Assume the population is normally distributed. c=0.95, x=14.5, s=0.55, n= 15 Use the given confidence interval to find the margin of error and the sample mean. (12.7,19.9The sample mean is In a random sample of 18 people, the mean...
2. Consider a large population with mean μ and known standard deviation σ = 5. There are two independent simple random samples of this population, one with n 150, and the other with n2 = 400, Denote the two sample means by , and X2, respectively. Let Cli and C12 be the usual 95% confidence intervals, constructed from each of the two samples. What is the probability that at the same time, X E CI2 and X2 E CI?

The pages per book in a library are normally distributed with an unknown population mean. A random sample of books is taken and results in a 95% confidence interval of (237,293) pages. What is the correct interpretation of the 95% confidence interval? Select the correct answer below: We estimate with 95% confidence that the sample mean is between 237 and 293 pages. We estimate that 95% of the time a book is selected, there will be between 237 and 293...
