1. You want to test whether you can reject the null hypothesis that a population mean is greater than or equal to 10. To do this, you collect a random sample of size 500 from the population, and you calculate that the sample mean and sample standard deviation are 8.6 and s, respectively. Which of the following is true? a. If s is any value between 11 and 13, you can reject the null hypothesis at the 5% significance level....

A botanist wishes to estimate the typical number of seeds for a certain fruit. She samples 74 specimens and counts the number of seeds in each. Use her sample results (mean = 70.4, standard deviation = 14.6) to find the 90% confidence interval for the number of seeds for the species. Enter your answer as an open- interval (f.e., parentheses) accurate to 3 decimal places. 90% C.I. - You wish to test...

The average house has 14 paintings on its walls. Is the mean
different for houses owned by teachers? The data show the results
of a survey of 13 teachers who were asked how many paintings they
have in their houses. Assume that the distribution of the
population is normal.

a) Suppose you collect a SRS of size n from a population and from the data collected you computed a 95% confidence interval for the mean of the population. Which of the following would produce a new confidence interval with larger width (larger margin of error) based on these same data? A. Use a larger confidence level. B. Use a smaller confidence level. C. Nothing can guarantee absolutely that you will get a larger interval. One can only say the...
