- Large samples of women and men are obtained, and the hemoglobin level is measured in each subject. Here is the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means, where the measures from women correspond to population 1 and the measures from men correspond to population 2: -1.7 g/dL <μ1-μ2<-1.62 g?dL What does the confidence interval suggest about equality of the mean hemoglobin level in women and the mean hemoglobin level in men? Because the confidence interval [includes/does not include] [number], it appears that there [is/is not] a significant difference between the mean level of hemoglobin in women and the mean level of hemoglobin in menarrow_forwardIn the past, a chemical company produced 880 pounds of a certain type of plastic per day. Now, using a newly developed and less expensive process, the mean daily yield of plastic for the first 50 days of production is 871 pounds; the standard deviation is 21 pounds. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to indicate that the mean daily yield for the new process is less than that of the old procedure?

- Construct the indicated confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Assume that the two samples are independent simple random samples.Independent samples from two different populations yield the following data. x̅1 = 393, x̅2 = 703, s1 = 85, s2 = 98. The sample size is 348 for both samples. Find the 90% confidence interval for μ1 - μ2.arrow_forwardBoth, the Cohen's d and confidence interval, measure the impact of the IV on the DV. The only difference is that the confidence interval does so for the population, whereas the Cohen's d does so for the sample.arrow_forwardA presidential candidate's aide estimates that, among all college students, the proportion p who intend to vote in the upcoming election is at least 60%. If 127 out of a random sample of 215 college students expressed an intent to vote, can we reject the aide's estimate at the o.1 level of significance? Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table.
