A random sample of 18 registered nurses in a large hospital showed that they worked on average 44.4 hours per week. The standard deviation of the sample was 2.8. Estimate the mean of the population with 99% confidence. Assume the variable is normally distributed. Round intermediate answers to at least three decimal places. Round your final answers to one decimal place.

A random sample of 13 registered nurses in a large hospital showed that they worked on average 44.3 hours per week. The standard deviation of the sample was 2.3. Estimate the mean of the population with 99% confidence. Assume the variable is normally distributed. Round intermediate answers to at least three decimal places. Round your final answers to one decimal place.
a random sample of 16 registered nurses in a large hospital showed that they worked on average 44.7 hours per week. the standard deviation of the sample was 2.2. estimate the mean of the population with 95% confidence. assume the variable is normally distributed. round intermediate answers to at least three decimal places. round your final answers to one decimal place.
In a large hospital, a nursing director selected a random sample of 38 registered nurses and found that the mean of their ages was 31.9. The population standard deviation for the ages is 4.2. She selected a random sample of 28 nursing assistants and found the mean of their ages was 29.5. The population standard deviation of the ages for the assistants is 6.0. Find the 99% confidence interval of the differences in the ages. Use μ1 for the mean...

A random sample of 43 observations is used to estimate the population variance. The sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 68.5 and 3.1, respectively. Assume that the population is normally distributed. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or F table) a. Construct the 95% interval estimate for the population variance. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Confidence interval to b. Construct...
A random sample of 49 observations is used to estimate the population variance. The sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 59 and 3.1, respectively. Assume that the population is normally distributed. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or F table) a. Construct the 90% interval estimate for the population variance. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Confidence interval b. Construct the...
1. A random sample of 29 BSN nurses at a large Michigan hospital have the average (mean) hourly wage of $37.55 with the standard deviation of $4.66. If we want a 99% confidence interval to have a margin of error of no more than $3, what is the minimum required sample size we should take? (Hint: use t*=2.7633) 2. A test of the hypotheses H0: mu=17 vs. Ha: mu >17 is conducted. Sample data of n=30 cases provides x-bar=14 with...

Do male and female servers at Swank Bar work the same number of hours? A sample of 75 female servers worked an average of 33 hours per week, with a standard deviation of 2. A sample of 75 male servers worked an average of 24 hours per week, with a standard deviation of 5.Let μ1μ1 and μ2μ2 represent the typical number of hours worked by all female and male servers at Swank Bar, respectively. Estimate with a 97% confidence level how many more hours...
A random sample of 24 observations is used to estimate the population mean. The sample mean and the sample standard deviation are calculated as 128.4 and 26.80, respectively. Assume that the population is normally distributed. [You may find it useful to reference the t table.) a. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the population mean. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places. Round "t" value to 3 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Confidence interval...
