A company has a policy of retiring company cars; this policy looks at number of miles driven, purpose of trips, style of car and other features. The distribution of the number of months in service for the fleet of cars is bell-shaped and has a mean of 44 months and a standard deviation of 9 months. Using the empirical rule (as presented in the book), what is the approximate percentage of cars that remain in service between 17 and 35 months? Do not enter the percent symbol. ans = ___%

Women are recommended to consume 1730 calories per day. You suspect that the average calorie intake is different for women at your college. The data for the 16 women who participated in the study is shown below: 1764, 1612, 1772, 1405, 1685, 1634, 1823, 1770, 1691, 1762, 1485, 1883, 1834, 1578, 1733, 1885 Assuming that the distribution is normal, what can be concluded at the a = 0.10 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use E-test for a population mean b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: ?v|| Select an answer v H.: ?vSelect an answer v c. The test statistic ? (please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) d. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) e. The p-value is f. Based on this, we should fail to reject g. Thus, the final conclusion is that. O The data suggest that the population mean calorie intake for women at your college is not significantly different from 1730 at a = 0.10, so there is not enough evidence to conclude that the…
