A city planner wants to estimate the average monthly residential water usage in the city. He selected a random sample of 42 households from the city, which gave the mean water usage to be 3409.30 gallons over a one-month period. Based on earlier data, the population standard deviation of the monthly residential water usage in this city is 387.90 gallons. Make a 97% confidence interval for the average monthly residential water usage for all households in this city.

A researcher is comparing the amount of calories in two different lunch special pizzas: Hawaiian and pepperoni. Random samples of 30 Hawaiian and 30 pepperoni are taken. The mean amount of calories in the Hawaiian pizza was 800 calories with a standard deviation of 50 calories and the mean amount of calories in the pepperoni pizza was 1000 with a standard deviation of 100 calories. The population standard deviations are unknown but considered to be equal. What is the 99% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means?

A randomized controlled trial is run to evaluate the effectiveness of a new drug for asthma in children. A total of 250 children are randomized to either the new drug or a placebo (125 per group). The mean age of children assigned to the new drug is 12.4 with a standard deviation of 3.6 years. The mean age of children assigned to the placebo is 13.0 with a standard deviation of 4.0 years. Suppose that there are 63 boys assigned to the new drug group and 58 boys assigned to the placebo group. Is there a statistically significant difference in the proportions of boys assigned to the treatments? Run the appropriate test at a 5% level of significance.
