Answer: B. Lower than the five-year-old
Explanation: Normal blood pressure increases as a child grows. The normal blood pressure for a neonate is about 64/41mmHg, the normal blood pressure of a two-year-old is about 95/58 mmHg, and the normal blood pressure for a five-year-old is about 90-112/50-72 mmHg (90-112 being systolic, 50-72 being diastolic). The normal blood pressure of an adult is around 120/80mmHg.

The average blood pressure for adults in the 30-40 year old age range is about 135. A researcher wonders whether the blood pressure of individuals with high stress positions differs from 135, keeping age range constant. For a random sample of 120 people with high stress jobs, he found: X_bar = 137 p-value = 0.11 95% CI (139 to 141) Based on these findings, he decided not to reject the null. Did he make the right decision? Select one: a....

The blood pressure of a person changes throughout the day. Suppose the systolic blood pressure of a person is measured 16 times over several days and the standard deviation of these measurements for the person is known to be σ=7.9 mmHg. Let μ be the true average blood pressure for that person and let x¯=127 be the average of the 16 measurements. (a) Find a two-sided 94% confidence interval for μ. One can be 94% confident that the true average...
