The ages (in years) of 10 men and their systolic blood pressures (in millimeters of mercury) are shown in the attached data table with a sample correlation coefficient of 0.915. Remove the data entry for the man who is 51 years old and has a systolic blood pressure of 201 millimeters of mercury from the data set and find the new correlation coefficient. Describe how this affects the correlation coefficient r. Use technology. Click the icon to view the data...
The systolic blood pressure of adults in the USA is nearly normally distributed with a mean of 121 and standard deviation of 23. Someone qualifies as having Stage 2 high blood pressure if their systolic blood pressure is 160 or higher. a. Around what percentage of adults in the USA have stage 2 high blood pressure? Give your answer rounded to two decimal places. % b. If you sampled 2000 people, how many would you expect to have BP> 160?...
Loretta, who turns 91 this year, has heard that the mean systolic blood pressure among the elderly is 115 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), but she believes that the actual value is higher. She bases her belief on a recently reported study of 15 randomly selected, elderly adults. The sample mean systolic blood pressure of the adults in the study was 129 mmHg, and the sample standard deviation was 24 mmHg. Assume that the population of systolic blood pressures of elderly...
Loretta, who turns 91 this year, has heard that the mean systolic blood pressure among the elderly is 115 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), but she believes that the actual value is higher. She bases her belief on a recently reported study of 22 randomly selected, elderly adults. The sample mean systolic blood pressure of the adults in the study was 120 mmHg, and the sample standard deviation was 25 mmHg. Assume that the population of systolic blood pressures of elderly...
For women aged 18-24, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are normally distributed with a mean of 114.8 and a standard deviation of 13.1 (based on data from the National Health Survey). If 25 women in that age bracket are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean systolic blood pressure is between 110 and 115. Select one: a. 41.89% b. 49.70% c. 44.56% d. None of other answers is neccessary true. e. 39.60%
For women aged 18-24, systolic blood pressures (in mm Hg) are normally distributed with a mean of 114.8 and a standard deviation of 13.1. If 36 women are selected at random from a population of 300 women aged 18-24, find the probability that their mean systolic blood pressure will be less than 110 mm Hg. Assume that the sampling is done without replacement and use a finite population correction factor with N = 300 a. 0.0096 b. 0.0146 c. 0.3483...

A standardized exam's scores are normally distributed. In a recent year, the mean test score was 1479 and the standard deviation was 316. The test scores of four students selected at random are 1880, 1220, 2180, and 1380. Find the z-scores that correspond to each value and determine whether any of the values are unusual. The z-score for 1880 is Round to two decimal places as needed.) The z-score for 1220 is (Round to two decimal places as needed) The...
Suppose you are given a sample of 18 systolic blood pressures having a mean of 121 mmHg and a sample standard deviation of 10 mmHg. You need to construct a 95% confidence interval around the true population mean systolic blood pressure. What would be the critical value you would use for this confidence interval? Select one: a. 2.086 b. 1.960 c. 2.101 d. 1.740 e. 2.110
