Question

Transcribed Image Text:The standard deviation of test scores on a certain achievement test is
11.5. A random sample of so scores on this test had a mean of 72.5. Based
on this sample, find a 99% confidence interval for the true mean of all
Scores. Then give its lower limit and upper limit.
Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places.
Round your answers to one decimal place. (If necessary, consult a list of
formulas.)
Lower limit: I

- A random sample of 10,000 bottles of cola was taken to see whether the mean weight was 16 fluid ounces, as marked on the container. The null hypothesis is that the population mean is 16 ounces. Use the read-out below to test the hypothesis that the colas do not have a population mean of 16 fluid ounces. You do not have to do any calculations; just interpret the given data clearly and thoroughly in the context of the problem. | One-Sample T: ounces Test of u = 16 vs = 16 Variable Mean StDev SE Mean 95 CI T P ounces 10000 15.9988 0.0985 0.0010 (15.9969, 16.0007) -1.21 0.225arrow_forwardFind the score that 75% of students will exceed.
