Homework Answers
Solution:
We are given
Standard deviation = S = 6.9
Sample size = n = 100
Standard error of the mean = s.e.(x̄) = S/sqrt(n) = 6.9/sqrt(100) = 6.9/10 = 0.69
Answer: 0.69

A sample of 5 measurements, randomly selected from a normally distributed population, resulted in a sample mean, x¯¯¯=6.9 and sample standard deviation s=1.28. Using α=0.05, test the null hypothesis that the mean of the population is 7.7 against the alternative hypothesis that the mean of the population, μ<7.7 by giving the following: find: (a) the degree of freedom: (b) the critical t value: (c) the test statistic:

Suppose a randomly selected sample of n = 68 men has a mean foot length of x = 26.7 cm, and the standard deviation of the sample is 3 cm. Calculate an approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean foot length of men. (Round the answers to one decimal place.) ____ to_____ cm important note : When working on the confidence interval for the population mean, have the standard error go to 5 decimal places. Then, input the answers to...

For a study conducted by the research department of a pharmaceutical company, 280 randomly selected individuals were asked to report the amount of money they spend annually on prescription allergy relief medication. The sample mean was found to be $17.50 with a standard deviation of $5.30 . A random sample of 275 individuals was selected independently of the first sample. These individuals reported their annual spending on non-prescription allergy relief medication. The mean of the second sample was found to...

The EPA wants to test a randomly selected sample of n n water specimens and estimate the mean daily rate of pollution produced by a mining operation. If the EPA wants a 90 90 % confidence interval with a bound of error of 2 2 milligram per liter (mg/L), how many water specimens are required in the sample? Assume prior knowledge indicates that pollution readings in water samples taken during a day have been approximately normally distributed with a standard...

The California Health Survey involved 51,048 randomly selected adults in California. The author selected 100 of those subjects and obtained these results. Among the 53 females, the mean height is 63.7 in. and the standard deviation is 4.5 in.: among the 47 males, the mean height is 69.2 in. and the standard deviation is 3.1 in. Test the claim that the mean height of an adult California female is greater than the mean height of an adult California male when...
