Given two independent random samples with the following results: n1=10x‾1=161s1=26n1=10x‾1=161s1=26   n2=18x‾2=131s2=23n2=18x‾2=131s2=23 Use this data to find the 98%98% confidence interval for the true difference between the population means. Assume that the population variances are equal and that the two populations are normally distributed. Copy Data Step 1 of 3 :   Find the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.

A study was conducted by a group of neurosurgeons. They compared a dynamic system (Z-plate) and a static system (ALPS plate) in terms of the number of acute postoperative days in the hospital spent by the patients. The descriptive statistics for these data are as follows: for 14 patients with dynamic system, the sample mean number of acute postoperative days was 7.36 with standard deviation of 1.22; for 6 patients with static system the sample mean number of acute postoperative days was 10.5 with sample standard deviation of 4.59. Assume that the numbers of acute postoperative days in both populations are normally distributed. We wish to estimate µ1 − µ2 with a 99 percent confidence interval. Can you assume unknown population variance are equal.  a.  Degrees of freedom and t-value are b. Margin of error and confidence interval are c.  Based on your interval in part (b), we can state with 99 percent confidence that the average numbers of acute postoperative days in two populations i.…

A certain counselor wants to compare mean IQ scores for two different social groups. A random sample of 11 IQ scores from group 1 showed a mean of 120 and a standard deviation of 16, while an independently chosen random sample of 10 IQ scores from group 2 showed a mean of 113 and a standard deviation of 14. Assuming that the populations of IQ scores are normally distributed for each of the groups and that the variances of these populations are equal, construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference u,-, between the mean u, of IQ scores of group 1 and the mean u, of IQ scores of group 2. Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the 90% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your responses to at least two decimal places.

#4data: 0.06, 0.11, 0.16, 0.15, 0.14, 0.08, 0.15. Use the sample data from #4 to construct a 98% confidence interval estimate for the standard deviation of the amount nitrogen-oxide emission for all cars.

the variance in waiting times(in minutes) of 10 attendees at bethel woods, where attendees enter a single waiting line that feeds three checkpoint windows is 0.227 minutes. A 95% confidence interval for the population variance would be
