TOTAL MARKS: 25 QUESTION 3 (a) Periodically, the county council tests the drinking water of homeowners for contaminants such as lead. The lead levels in water specimens (ug/L) collected in 2017 for a sample of 12 residents of the county are shown below: 1.6, 3.3, 3.8, 0.7, 0.5, 1.3, 3.8, 4.2, 2.4, 2.9, 0.9, 3.5 (i) Calculate the sample mean and sample standard deviation for these measurements (ii) Construct the 99% confidence interval for the true mean μ using an...
A sample of 10 diesel trucks were run both hot and cold to estimate the difference in fuel economy. The results, in mi/gal, are as follows: Truck 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Hot 4.56 4.46 6.49 5.37 6.25 5.90 4.12 3.85 4.15 4.69 Cold 4.26 4.08 5.83 4.96 5.87 5.32 3.92 3.69 3.74 4.19 A) Find a 98% two-sided confidence interval for the difference in mean fuel mileage between high and cold engines. B) What...

Question 12 Use the interactive website to determine the percent of cases that fall below a raw score of 15 in the distribution described in Question 9 (Mean = 50 SD = 15). a. .98% b. 1.86% c. 3.50% d. 4.77% Question 13 Use the interactive website to determine the percentage of cases that fall in between the raw scores of 15 and 30 for the distribution described in Question 9 (Mean = 50 SD = 15). a. 7.18% b....
A researcher wanted to study the effect of a newly developed gasoline additive (Additive X) on automobile mileage (miles per gallon, MPG). To gather information, a random sample of cars has been selected. For each car, the MPG was measured both when gasoline with Additive X is used and when gasoline without Additive X is used. The order of the two treatments (with Additive X versus without Additive X) was randomized and care was taken so that there was no...
A random sample of 49 measurements from a population with population standard deviation o 3 had a sample mean of x, 9. An independeent random sample of sample mean of x, 11. Test the claim that the population means are 64 measurements from a second population with population standard deviation a2 4 had different. Use level of significance 0.01. (a) What distribution does the sample test statistic follow? Explain. The student's t. We assume that both population distributions are approximately...
AS11ER2 AD3E62E60465... Reliance on solid biomass fuel for cooking and heating exposes many children from developing countries to high levels of indoor air pollution. An article presented information on various pulmonary characteristics in samples of children whose households in India used either biomass fuel or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG). For the 754 children in biomass households, the sample mean peak expiratory flow (a person's maadimum speed of expiration) was 3.8 US, and the sample standard deviation was 1.2. For the...
You are curious about the average number of yards Matthew Stafford throws for each game for the Detroit Lions. You randomly select 23 games and see that the average yards per game is 344.5 with a standard deviation of 27.8 yards. You want to create a 95% confidence interval for the true average number of yards per game he throws. What is the margin of error for this estimate? Question 1 options: 1) 1.5833 2) 5.7967 3) 12.0216 4) 9.9538...
Reliance on solid biomass fuel for cooking and heating exposes many children from developing countries to high levels of indoor air pollution. An article presented information on various pulmonary characteristics in samples of children whose households in India used eithe biomass fuel or queried petroleum gas (LPG). For the 754 children in biomass households, the sample mean peak expiratory flow (a person's maximum speed of expiration) was 3.5 L/s, and the sample standard deviation was 1.2. For the 759 children...
