A previous study of professional baseball players showed that the standard deviation of home runs hit by players who play a full season was 7.23 homeruns. If researchers want to conduct a new study to determine the number of homeruns a player hits in a year, how many players would they need in their study if they want to be within 1.5 home runs of the true mean? Use a 95% level of confidence?

A baseball player hit 65 home runs in a season of the 65 home runs, 25 went to right field, 18 went to right center field, 11 went to center field, 9 went to left center field, and 2 went to left field (a) What is the probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to right field? (b) What is the probability that a randomly selected home run was hit to left field? (c) Was it unusual for...
During the 2019 regular Major League baseball season there were 6755 home runs hit where the distance traveled was tracked. The distances of these home runs had a normal distribution with mean=400.21 feet and standard deviation 26.28 feet. Suppose we randomly select 2 home runs, and look at their distances traveled, D1 and D2. a) What is the probability that D1 > 428? b) What is the probability that D1 < 390? c) What is the expected value of D1...

1) A study of 100 professors showed that the time they spent on the average in creating test questions was 20.0 minutes per question. The standard deviation of the population is 1. Which of the following is the 90% confidence interval for the average number of minutes it takes to create a test question? a) (18.36, 21.64) B)(19.74, 20.26) c)(19.84, 20.16) D)(19.88, 20.12) 2) 1) A previous analysis of paper boxes showed that the standard deviation of their lengths is...
Chapter 8 Python Case study Baseball Team Manager For this case study, you’ll use the programming skills that you learn in Murach’s Python Programming to develop a program that helps a person manage a baseball team. This program stores the data for each player on the team, and it also lets the manager set a starting lineup for each game. After you read chapter 2, you can develop a simple program that calculates the batting average for a player. Then,...

one-sample t question A preliminary study of fall lobster catch showed that for 35 lobsters selected at random the mean weight was 2.9 pounds with a standard deviation of .6 lbs. a) find a 90% confidence interval for the population mean weight of fall lobsters b) how many lobsters should be included in the sample if we want to say with 90% confidence that population mean pounds fall within .1 lbs of the sample mean? c) the mean weight for...
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,...
Study Prep, Chapter 13: Correlation, Simple Linear Regression, Multiple Regression MULTIPLE REGRESSION Major League Baseball Team (Team) recently hired Trixie, a third year student in the Fowler College of Business, for an internship position. After showing Trixie around the facilities, Team provided Trixie with an office, desk, computer, phone, and instructed her to "figure out what professional baseball teams need to do to get fans in the seats." Below is a regression model Trixie developed in trying to get a...
