- I wanted to test if the mean Exam 3 score in this course was different than the mean Exam 2 score. To conduct this test I used the 30 students in my course last semester as my sample. I first calculated the difference in scores between Exam 2 and Exam 3 ("Exam 2 score - Exam 3 score"). The sample mean of these differences is 2.0 and the sample standard deviation of the differences is 3.0. What is your decision for this test? Group of answer choices 1. Reject the null hypothesis 2. Retain the null hypothesisarrow_forwardKathy and her brother Clay recently ran in a local marathon. The distribution of finishing timefor women was approximately normal with mean 259 minutes and standard deviation 32minutes. The distribution of finishing time for men was approximately normal with mean 242minutes and standard deviation 29 minutes. (a) The finishing time for Clay was 289 minutes. Calculate and interpret the standardized scorefor Clay’s marathon time. Show your work. (b) The finishing time for Kathy was 272 minutes. What proportion of women who ran themarathon had a finishing time less than Kathy’s? Show your work. (c) The standard deviation of finishing time is greater for women than for men. What does thisindicate about the finishing times of the women who ran the marathon compared to thefinishing times of the men who ran the marathon?arrow_forwardSuppose that the time spent by children in front of the television set per year has the distribution N(1500, 250) What proportion of children spend less than 1000 hours in front of the television?arrow_forward

- Suppose that the quarterly sales levels among health care information systems companies are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 8vmillion dollars and a standard deviation of 1.1million dollars. One health care information systems company considers a quarter a "failure" if its sales level that quarter is in the bottom 15%of all quarterly sales levels. Determine the sales level (in millions of dollars) that is the cutoff between quarters that are considered "failures" by that company and quarters that are not. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to one decimal place.arrow_forwardWeights of female cats of a certain breed are normally distributed with mean 4.1 kg and standard deviation 0.6 kg. (i). What proportion of female cats have weights between 3.7 and 4.4 kg? . (ii). A certain female cat has a weight that is 0.5 standard deviations above the mean. What proportion of female cats are heavier than this one?. (iii). How heavy is a female cat whose weight is on the 80th percentile?. (iv). A female cat is chosen at random. What is the probability that she weighs more than 4.5 kg? . (v). Five female cats are chosen at random. What is the probability that exactly one of them weighs more than 4.5 kg? .arrow_forwardAccording to the New York Daily News, March 5, 2014, people 65 years and older watch an average of 50.5 hours of TV per week. We will estimate the standard deviation to be 12.7 hours per week. Your town has many social programs for senior citizens which may reduce the amount of TV that older people watch. You want to find out if it is true that people 65 and older in your town watch less than 50.5 hours of TV per week. So, you sample 40 people 65 and older in your town. You find that the average time that the 40 people watch per week is 45.8 hours. Can the claim be supported to a level of significance of α = .02, test the hypothesis?arrow_forward
