QUESTION 11 "A local university administers a comprehensive examination to the recipients of a B.S. degree in Business Administration. A sample of 5 examinations is selected at random and scored. The scores are shown below. Assume the population is normally distributed 54 68 75 80 98 At 95% confidence, determine an interval for the mean of the population." 35.97 to 44.19 20.06 to 27.80 54.94 to 95.06 120.04 to 150.01
(4)Five hundred students from a local high school took a college entrance examination. Historical data from the school record show that the standard deviation of test scores is 40. A random sample of thirty- six students is taken from the entire population of 500 students. The mean test score for the sample is three hundred eighty. Find (a) 95% confidence interval for the unknown population mean test score. (b) 95% confidence interval for the unknown population mean test score if...
At Western University, the historical mean of scholarship examination scores for freshman applications is 900. A historical population standard deviation σ = 180 is assumed known. Each year, the assistant dean uses a sample of applications to determine whether the mean examination score for the new freshman applications has changed. State the hypotheses. What is the 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean examination score if a sample of 200 applications provided a sample mean x bar = 935?...
Annual starting salaries of college graduates with degrees in business administration are generally expected to be between $30,000 and $45,000. 1) Assume that a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean annual starting salary is desired. Determine the planning value for the population standard deviation. 2) Determine how large a sample should be taken if the desired margin of error is: a. $400 b. $190 c. $90
At Western University the historical mean of scholarship examination scores for freshman applications is 910. A historical population standard deviation = 190 is assumed known. Each year, the assistant dean uses a sample of applications to determine whether the mean examination score for the new freshman applications has changed. a. State the hypotheses. b. What is the 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean examination score if a sample of 200 applications provided a sample mean = 935 (to the nearest whole...
Annual starting salaries for college graduates with degrees in business administration are generally expected to be between $10,000 and $35,000. Assume that a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean annual starting salary is desired. a. What is the planning value for the population standard deviation? b. How large a sample should be taken if the desired margin of error is $400? Round your answer to next whole number. $230? $90?
At Western University the historical mean of scholarship examination scores for freshman applications is 920. A historical population standard deviation o = 180 is assumed known. Each year, the assistant dean uses a sample of applications to determine whether the mean examination score for the new freshman applications has changed. a. State the hypotheses. Ho: u Select Ha: u Select b. What is the 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean examination score if a sample of 200 applications...
Below is the data for the exam scores of a sample of 9 students. The population is normally distributed. 85, 70, 66, 95, 77, 94, 65, 79, 84 a)Find the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the mean. Round to 3 decimal places. b)Find the confidence interval for the mean. Round to 3 decimal places.
