MULTIPLE CHOICE A-We are 5% confident that the true uric acid level for this patient falls within this interval.…arrow_forwardYou have developed an exam to measure knowledge of biology and administered it to a large number of people. On this exam, u= 85 and o = 10. You standardize the distribution so that the new mean and standard deviation are u = 50 and o = 5 If someone takes the exam and receives a score of 73 (before the score is transformed), what will this score be once it is transformed for the new (standardized) distribution?arrow_forward
- When you have significant results in data analysis, it is not necessary to report all relevant means and standard deviations. True or falsearrow_forwardIf a set of observations is normally distributed, what percent of these differ from the mean by (a) more than 2.50? (b) less than 0.640?arrow_forwardAccording to the Empirical Rule, in a Normal Distribution of data you will have percent of the data within 1 standard deviation of the mean, percent of the data within 2 standard deviation of the mean, and percent of the data within 3 standard deviation of the mean.arrow_forward

This may be an advance indication of illness such as gout, leukemia, or lymphoma.† Over a period of months, an adult male patient has taken fifteen blood tests for uric acid. The mean concentration was x = 5.40 mg/dl. The distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males can be assumed to be normal, with ? = 1.89 mg/dl.

The mean of the distribution is 74 and the standard deviation is 9. Using a Continuous Variable Normal Bell Distribution Model, calculate the minimum test score needed to score in the top 5% of the class. Complete your work in the worksheet by listing the formula inputs, labels for the formula inputs and make your calculations with formulas. This test problem is similar to what you studied in video # 32, 33 and 34 and homework problems # 17, 21 and 23.
