Gentle Ben is a Morgan horse at a Colorado dude ranch. Over the past 8 weeks, a veterinarian took the following glucose readings from this horse (in mg/100 ml). 93 87 82 106 99 108 84 90 The sample mean is x ≈ 93.6. Let x be a random variable representing glucose readings taken from Gentle Ben. We may assume that x has a normal distribution, and we know from past experience that σ = 12.5. The mean glucose level...

Let x be a random variable representing dividend yield of bank stocks. We may assume that x has a normal distribution with o = 2.9%. A random sample of 10 bank stocks gave the following yields (in percents). 5.7 4.8 6.0 4.9 4.0 3.4 6.5 7.1 5.3 6.1 The sample mean is x = 5.38%. Suppose that for the entire stock market, the mean dividend yield is u = 5.0%. Do these data indicate that the dividend yield of all...
Bill Alther is a zoologist who studies Anna's hummingbird (Calypte anna).† Suppose that in a remote part of the Grand Canyon, a random sample of six of these birds was caught, weighed, and released. The weights (in grams) were as follows. 3.7 2.9 3.8 4.2 4.8 3.1 The sample mean is x = 3.75 grams. Let x be a random variable representing weights of hummingbirds in this part of the Grand Canyon. We assume that x has a normal distribution...

The Nero Match Company sells matchboxes that are supposed to have an average of 40 matches per box, with σ = 8. A random sample of 94 matchboxes shows the average number of matches per box to be 42.2. Using a 1% level of significance, can you say that the average number of matches per box is more than 40? What are we testing in this problem? single mean single proportion (a) What is the level of significance? State the...
