A polymer is manufactured in a batch chemical process. Viscosity measurements show that it is approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of σ = 20. A random sample of 42 batches has a mean viscosity, x-bar = 759. Construct a 99% confidence interval around the true population mean viscosity.

A polymer is manufactured in a batch chemical process. Viscosity measurements are normally made on each batch, and long experience with the process has indicated that the variability in the process is fairly stable with σ = 20. Fifteen batch viscosity measurements are given as follows: 724, 718, 776, 760, 745, 759, 795, 756, 742, 740, 761, 749, 739, 747, 742. A process change that involves switching the type of catalyst used in the process is made. Following the process...

Two catalysts may be used in a batch chemical process. Twelve batches were prepared using catalyst 1, resulting in an average yield of 85 and a sample standard deviation of 3. Fifteen batches were prepared using catalyst 2, and they resulted in an average yield of 89 with a standard deviation of 2. Assume that yield measurements are approximately normally distributed with the same standard deviation (a) Is there evidence to support the claim that catalyst 2 produces higher mean...

in a chemical process two catalysts are being compared for their effect on the output of the process reaction. a sample of 15 batches with catalyst A gave an average yield of 436 with sample standard deviation 4. the 17 batches with catalysts B gave an average yield of 422 with sample variance 25. find 99% confidence interval for the difference between the population means assuming the populations are approximately normally distributed with equal variances

A new catalyst is being investigated for use in the production of a plastic chemical. Ten batches of the chemical are produced. The mean yield of the 10 batches is 72.5% and the standard deviation is 5.6%. Assume the yields are independent and approximately normally distributed. Find a 99% confidence interval for the mean yield when the new catalyst is used. Round the answers to three decimal places. The 99% confidence interval is ( , ).

A manufacturer produces piston rings for an automobile engine. It is known that ring diameter is approximately normal distributed and has standard deviation σ = 25 hours. A random sample of 62 bulbs has a mean life of x-bar = 74.036 mm. Construct a 90% confidence interval around the true population mean for piston ring diameter.

A simple random sample of size 14 has mean 3.67 and standard deviation 1.75. The population is approximately normally distributed. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean. 1. The parapmeter is the population (choose one) mean, standard deviation, variable, proportion 2. The correct method to find the confidence interval is the (choose one) z, t, chi square method

Suppose that the monthly return of stock A is approximately normally distributed with mean µ and standard deviation σ, where µ and σ are two unknown parameters. We want to learn more about the population mean µ, so we collect the monthly returns of stock A in nine randomly selected months. The returns are given (in percentage) as follows: 0.3, 1.3, 1.5, −0.6, −0.2, 0.8, 0.8, 0.9, −1.2 Answer the following questions about the confidence intervals for µ. (a) Construct...
