A random sample of 13 women resulted in systolic blood pressure levels with a mean of 118 and a standard deviation of 1.3. A random sample of 21 men resulted in systolic blood pressure levels with a mean of 128 and a standard deviation of 5.9. Use a 0.05 significance level and the critical value method to test the claim that blood pressure levels for women vary more than blood pressu levels for men. Enter the test statistic.

A report states that the mean yearly salary offer for students graduating with a degree in accounting is $48,722. Suppose that a random sample of 50 accounting graduates at a large university who received job offers resulted in a mean offer of $49,870 and a standard deviation of $3900. Do the sample data provide strong support for the claim that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,722?

A random sample of 50 gas stations in Cook County, Illinois, resulted in a mean price per gallon of $2.60 and a standard deviation of $0.07. State the Empirical Rule. A histogram of the data indicates that the data follow a bell-shaped distribution. Use the Empirical Rule to determine the percentage of gas stations that have prices within three standard deviations of the mean. Determine the percentage of gas stations that have prices between $2.46 and $2.74, according to the Empirical Rule. Explain your calculations. Would a gas price of $2.99 be considered unusual in the statistical sense? Why or why not?

A quick survey of peanut butter prices had standard deviation and mean of $.26 and $3.68 respectively. Compute the area for a peanut butter jar costing more than $4.25

You are testing the claim that the mean GPA of night students is different from the mean GPA of day students. You sample 30 night students, and the sample mean GPA is 2.83 with a standard deviation of 0.94. You sample 55 day students, and the sample mean GPA is 2.97 with a standard deviation of 0.92. Test the claim using a 1% level of significance. Assume the population standard deviations are unequal and that GPAs are normally distributed. Give answer to at least 4 decimal places.

A newspaper article noted that the mean life span for 35 male symphony conductors was 73.2   years with a standard deviation of 8.7 . Males in the general population have a mean life span of 69.5 years. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that male symphony conductors have a mean life span that is greater than 69.5 years. a. Define the parameter     A. mu   ​= The mean life span of the 35 male symphony conductors in the sample   B. p​ = The proportion of all male symphony conductors who life more than 69.5 years   C. mu   ​= The mean life span of all male symphony conductors   D. mu   ​= The mean life span of all males   b. State the null and alternative hypotheses     A. Upper H 0 : mu equals 73.2    Upper H 1 : mu greater than 73.2     B. Upper H 0 : mu equals 69.5 Upper H 1 : mu greater than 69.5     C. Upper H 0 : mu greater than 69.5 Upper H 1 : mu equals 69.5     D. Upper H 0…

After 84 students at a particular university take a psychological evaluation, the sample mean score on the test is calculated to be 117 with a standard deviation of 44. We are interested in testing whether or not the mean score of the students at this university is different than the published population average of 112. Calculate the value of the test statistic and then use that to determine the appropriate p-value. 0.5952 0.2976 0.1488 0.8512 1.7024 0.1488 0.0744

Analysts of traffic control systems believe that the average speed of heavy vehicles on highways has decreased after passing an ordinance of high penalty to regulate over speeding. The average speed for a random selection of 36 trucks was found to be 55 mph with a standard deviation of 5 mph. The speed before the ordinance was passed was an average of up to 57 mph on these highways.Compute the value of the test statistic. Group of answer choices 0.40 -0.40 2.40 -5.37 -2.40
