How do you know whem do use the z score or the t table (34) Suppose there are 106 body temperatures having a mean of 98.20 ° F. Assume that the sample is an SRS and the population standard deviation σ is known to be 0.62 °F. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the common belief that the mean body temperature of healthy adults is equal to 98.6. (35) A study conducted a few years ago claims that the...
According to a recent study, the population of U.S. citizens spend, on average, 30 hours per week watching television, with a standard deviation of 5.25 hours. If a random sample of n = 36 consumers is drawn from this population, what is the probability that the sample mean will be no more than 29.3 hours per week?
