A sample of size n=150 is to be used to test the following hypothesis at the level of significance 0.02. HO: mu = 8.3 versus Ha: mu is not equal to 8.3, where mu is the true average weight of a newborn American baby. Give the appropriate rejection region. Let T (bar{X}- mu) / (S/sqrt{n}) where, bar{X} = sample mean and sqrt{n} is the square root of n. OT> 2.575 or T< -2.575 OT> 2.325 or T< -2.325 OT> 1.96 or T< -1.96

A​ person's body mass index​ (BMI) is computed by dividing the weight​ (kg) by the square of height​ (m). The accompanying table contains the BMI statistics for random samples of males and females. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples selected from normally distributed​populations, and do not assume that the population standard deviations are equal. Let population 1 be females.   Female​ BMI: n=69 x=29.14 s=7.41 Male​ BMI: n=79 x=28.18 s=5.24   The test statistic is   The​ P-value is     Construct a confidence interval appropriate for testing the claim in part​ (a).   The ___​% confidence interval estimate is ___<μ1−μ2<___.

GPAS at CCSU are normally distributed with a mean of 2.14 and a standard deviation of 0.52. Find the z-score for a GPA of 2.78.

The average height X and weight Y of males in population have a bivariate normal distribution with means µX 1.80 m., µy 90.0 kgs and standard deviations Ox = 0.30 m., oy = 15.3 kgs respectively. The correlation coefficient between X and Y is p= 0.80.

The nicotine content in cigarettes of a certain brand is normally distributed with mean (in milligrams) u and standard deviation o = 0.1. The brand advertises that the mean nicotine content of their cigarettes is 1.5 mg. Now, suppose a reporter wants to test whether the mean nicotine content is actually higher than advertised. He takes measurements from a SRS of 15 cigarettes of this brand. The sample yields an average of 1.6 mg of nicotine. Conduct a test using a significance level of a = 0.05. (a) The standardized test statistic (b) The critical value (endpoint of Rejection Region) is z* = (c) The final conclusion is OA. The nicotine content is probably higher than advertised. B. There is not sufficient evidence to show that the ad is misleading.

GPAs at CCSU are normally distributed with a mean of 2.25 and a standard deviation of 0.45. Find the z-score for a GPA of 2.49.

Let ex be a random variable that represents the hemoglobin count (HC) in human blood (measured in grams per milliliter). In healthy adult females, x has a approximately normal distribution with a population mean of 14.0 and population standard deviation equal 2.3. Suppose a female patient had 10 blood test over the past year , and the sample mean HC was determined to be 15.3. With a level of significance a= 0.05, determine whether the patient's HC is higher than the population averages. Specifically do the following: write the data state null hypothesis H0 and the alternate hypothesis H1
