In Country A, the population mean height for 3-year-old boys is 39 inches. Suppose a random sample of 15 3-year-old boys from Country B showed a sample mean of 38.4 inches with a standard deviation of 4 inches. The boys were independently sampled. Assume that heights are Normally distributed in the population. Complete parts a through c below.
Find the p-value.
p equals____? (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.
Solution:
For the given problem test statistic is:
t= -0.581
P-value= 2*p( t < -0.581)= 2*0.2855= 0.571

It is known that the height of ten‐year old boys is normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 4.24 cm. If a random sample of 64 ten‐year old boys are considered what is the probability that the average height of this sample of ten‐year old boys will differ by no more than 1.15 cm in either direction from the unknown population mean height of ten‐year old boys?
