The scores of students on an exam are normally distributed with a mean of 225 and a standard deviation of 38. (a) What is the lower quartile score for this exam? (Recall that the first quartile is the value in a data set with 25% of the observations being lower.)
Do female college students spend more time than male college students watching TV? This was one of the questions investigated by the authors of an article. Each student in a random sample of 46 male students at a university in England and each student in a random sample of 38 female students from the same university kept a diary of how he or she spent time over a three-week period. For the sample of males, the mean time spent watching...

The IQ scores of college students are normally distributed with the mean of 120 and standard deviation of 10. If a random sample of 25 students is taken, what is the probability that the mean of this sample will be between 120 and 125. (49.38%)
3. (10 marks)) A study investigates whether students at one college are getting heavier. The mean weight for female students at the college three years ago was found to be 138 lbs. This year, in a sample of 2400 female students from the college, - 139.5 lbs and s. = 19.6 lbs. Let u represent the mean weight this year of all female students at the college. Conduct a significance test using HO: y = 138 against HA: 138. a....
