QUESTION 1
The method of tree ring dating gave the following years A.D. for an archaeological excavation site. Assume that the population of x values has an approximately normal distribution.
1320 | 1187 | 1278 | 1313 | 1268 | 1316 | 1275 | 1317 | 1275 |
(a) Use a calculator with mean and standard deviation keys to find the sample mean year x and sample standard deviation s. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)
x = | A.D. |
s = | yr |
(b) Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean of all tree ring
dates from this archaeological site. (Round your answers to the
nearest whole number.)
lower limit | A.D. |
upper limit | A.D. |
QUESTION 2
Over the past several months, an adult patient has been treated for tetany (severe muscle spasms). This condition is associated with an average total calcium level below 6 mg/dl. Recently, the patient's total calcium tests gave the following readings (in mg/dl). Assume that the population of x values has an approximately normal distribution.
9.3 | 9.0 | 10.5 | 8.9 | 9.4 | 9.8 | 10.0 | 9.9 | 11.2 | 12.1 |
(a) Use a calculator with mean and sample standard deviation keys to find the sample mean reading x and the sample standard deviation s. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
x = | mg/dl |
s = | mg/dl |
(b) Find a 99.9% confidence interval for the population mean of
total calcium in this patient's blood. (Round your answer to two
decimal places.)
lower limit | mg/dl |
upper limit | mg/dl |
