A preliminary sample of 35 bacteria reveals a sample mean of ¯x=76x¯=76 hours. The population standard deviation is known to be 5.6 hours. You would like to estimate the mean lifespan for this species of bacteria to within a margin of error of 0.4 hours at a 90% level of confidence.

- The distribution of scores on a standardized test is approximately Normal with standard deviation of σσ = 22. If a sample of 150 students had a mean score of x¯x¯ = 74.3, use this to find a 99% confidence interval for the mean score of all students on this test. We are 99% confident that the the mean score of students on this test was in the interval What is the margin of error for your confidence interval? Margin of error =arrow_forwardThe chart to the right shows that a professor's grading distribution is bell shaped, or normally shaped. The mean of the distribution is 74 and the standard deviation is 9. Using a Continuous Variable Normal Bell Distribution Model, calculate the minimum test score needed to score in the top 5% of the class. Complete your work in the worksheet by listing the formula inputs, labels for the formula inputs and make your calculations with formulas. This test problem is similar to what you studied in video # 32, 33 and 34 and homework problems # 17, 21 and 23.
