A particular brand of trans-fat butter was analyzed to determine the level of polyunsaturated fatty acid (in percentages). A sample of six packages resulted in the following data: 16.8, 17.2, 17.4, 16.9, 16.5, 17.1 Compute a 99% tolerance interval on the polyunsaturated fatty acid in this particular type of margarine that has a confidence interval of 95%. a. Insufficient Data O b. None of the above O c. The 99% tolerance interval is much wider than the 99% confidence interval on u O d. The 99% tolerance interval is much narrower than the 99% confidence interval on u

In a sample of seven cars, each car was tested for nitrogen-oxide emissions (in grams per mile) and the following results were obtained: 0.06, 0.11, 0.16, 0.15, 0.14, 0.08, 0.15 (based on data from the Environmental Protection Agency). Assuming that this sample is representative of the cars in use, construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean amount of nitrogen-oxide emission for all cars.
In a sample of seven cars, each car was tested for nitrogen-oxide emissions (in grams per mile) and the following results were obtained: 0.14, 0.13, 0.18, 0.17, 0.11, 0.06, 0.11. Assuming that this sample is representative of the cars in use and that the sample is drawn from a normal population, construct a 95%confidence interval of the mean amount of nitrogen-oxide emissions for all cars. (Note that x=0.129 and s=0.041.) The 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of nitrogen-oxide emissions for all cars is enter your response here g/mi to enter your response here g/mi.

The manufacturer of a new eye cream claims that the cream reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after just 1414 days of application. To test the claim, 1010 women are randomly selected to participate in a study. The number of fine lines and wrinkles that are visible around each participant’s eyes is recorded before and after the 1414 days of treatment. The following table displays the results. Test the claim at the 0.050.05 level of significance assuming that the population distribution of the paired differences is approximately normal. Let women before the treatment be Population 1 and let women after the treatment be Population 2.

At the main Al Mawalih road junction, during a specific regular time, chosen between 6:00am and 6:00pm, the STAT2101 project group collected data on the number of passengers per car. Data were collected on a sample of 100 cars about different types of cars, of which 50 were driven by female drivers, while 80 were driving to a shopping mall. Which of the following is correct about the level of measurement for the variables under this study? Select one: O a The variable "driver's gender" is of a ratio measurement level. Ob. The variable "type of car" is of an interval measurement level. OC The variable "driving to a shopping mall or not" is of an ordinal measurement level. O d. The variable "number of passengers per car" is of a ratio measurement level.
A study done on 8 cars measuring the nitrogen oxide emissions (g/m) obtained the following data: 0.2; 0.02; 0.12; 0.11; 0.16; 0.14; 0.08; 0.15 The measures of nitrogen oxide are assumed to follow a normal distribution. A 90% confidence interval for population mean of measures nitrogen oxide emissions is: (0.082,0.152) (0.0785, 0.149) O (0.086 , 0.159) O (0.093 , 0.158)
10.33 Soil pH is an important variable in the design of structures that will contact the soil. The pH at a potential construction site was said to average 6.5. Nine test samples of soil from the site gave readings of 7.3, 6.5, 6.4, 6.1, 6.0, 6.5, 6.2, 5.8, 6.7 Do these readings cast doubt upon the claimed average? (Test at the 5% significance level.)
