In a previous study, 180 randomly selected adult males had their weights taken that resulted in a standard deviation of 18.05 kg. Current researchers plan to study the weights of male medical students. How many male medical students must be weighed to estimate the mean weight of all male medical students? They have assumed that weights of male medical students have less variation than weights of the population of adult males and plan to let σ = 18.05 kg. Additionally,...

Problem #8: A simple random sample of 70 basketball players is taken from different teams and their mean weight is found to be 240 pounds and the standard deviation of the population is 20 pounds. At the significance level a=0.01 test the claim that the average weight for all basketball players is 234 pounds. Note:Do Not test the claim! Compute only P value (consider as two-tailed test). What is P value? P = ?

To investigate the effectiveness of a diet, a random sample of 16 female patients is drawn from a population of adult females using the diet. The weight of each individual in the sample is taken at the start and at the end of the diet. Assume that the population of differences in weight before and after the diet follows a normal distribution. Suppose the mean decrease in weights over all 16 subjects in the study is 4.0 pounds with the...
