1. The National Center for Health Statistics reports that the systolic blood pressure for males 35 to 44 years of age has a mean of 128. In a study of business executives, a random sample of 101 executives has a mean systolic blood pressure of 134 with a standard deviation of 25. Do the data suggest that the mean systolic blood pressure for business executives is higher than 128? Use a 5% significance level?

The National Center for Health Statistics reports that the mean systolic blood pressure for males 35 to 44 years of age is 128. Do the executives of a large company have a different mean blood pressure? We collect data on 72 executives and find x-bar=126.07 and s=15. For this test, we plan to use a significance level of 0.05. 1. State the null and alternative hypothesis. 2. What is the value of alpha? 3. Using a calculator, conduct the appropriate...

Suppose the systolic blood pressure (in mm) of adult males has an approximately normal distribution with mean μμ =125 and standard deviation σσ =14. Create an empirical rule graph with the following: A title and label for the horizontal axis including units. Vertical lines for the mean and first 3 standard deviations in each direction with numerical labels on the horizontal axis Labels for the areas of the 8 regions separated by the vertical lines as well. Note: This may...

8. Normal blood pressure typically is defined as having systolic pressure < 120 and diastolic pressure <80. Among US residents age 40+, mean systolic pressure is 130 with a standard deviation of 35, and mean diastolic pressure is 80 with a standard deviation of 20. a) What is the probability that a US resident 40+ has high systolic blood pressure? b) What is the probability that a US resident 40+ does not have high diastolic blood pressure?
