REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is sleep during which most dreams occur. Each night a person has both REM and non-REM sleep. However, it is thought that children have more REM sleep than adults†. Assume that REM sleep time is normally distributed for both children and adults. A random sample of n1 = 9 children (9 years old) showed that they had an average REM sleep time of x1 = 2.9 hours per night. From previous studies, it is known that σ1 = 0.5 hour. Another random sample of n2 = 9 adults showed that they had an average REM sleep time of x2 = 2.20 hours per night. Previous studies show that σ2 = 0.7 hour. (a) What is the value of the sample test statistic? Compute the corresponding z or t value as appropriate. (Test the difference μ1 − μ2. Round your answer to two decimal places.)(b) Find (or estimate) the P-value. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) Find a 98% confidence interval for μ1 − μ2. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit       upper limit

If the coefficient B₁ has a nonzero value, then it is helpful in predicting the value of the response variable. If B₁ = 0, it is not helpful in predicting the value of the response variable and can be eliminated from the regression equation. To test the claim that B₁ = 0 use the test statistic t = (b₁-0) /sp. Critical values or P-values can be found using the t distribution with n - (k+1) degrees of freedom, where k is the number of predictor (x) variables and n is the number of observations in the sample. The standard error sp, is often provided by software. For example, see the accompanying technology display, which shows that sp=0.076885101 (found in the column with the heading of "Std. Err." and the row corresponding to the first predictor variable of height). Use the technology display to test the claim that B₁ = 0. Also test the claim that B₂ = 0. What do the results imply about the regression equation? Click the icon to view the technology output. Test the claim that B₁ = 0. For…

REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is sleep during which most dreams occur. Each night a person has both REM and non-REM sleep. However, it is thought that children have more REM sleep than adults†. Assume that REM sleep time is normally distributed for both children and adults. A random sample of n1 = 11 children (9 years old) showed that they had an average REM sleep time of x1 = 2.5 hours per night. From previous studies, it is known that σ1 = 0.7 hour. Another random sample of n2 = 11 adults showed that they had an average REM sleep time of x2 = 2.00 hours per night. Previous studies show that σ2 = 0.6 hour. Do these data indicate that, on average, children tend to have more REM sleep than adults? Use a 10% level of significance. Solve the problem using both the traditional method and the P-value method.

Let X is a random variable with a pdf with mean u and standard deviation o (we do not know the actual shape of the pdf). If we draw reasonably large (n) samples from X, and calculate the sample mean X-bar, then what will be the pdf of the X-bar and WHY? |(Do not forget to mention the parameters of the pdf of X-bar) Answer here--->
