At Western University the historical mean of scholarship examination scores for freshman applications is 910. A historical population standard deviation = 190 is assumed known. Each year, the assistant dean uses a sample of applications to determine whether the mean examination score for the new freshman applications has changed.
a. State the hypotheses.
b. What is the 95% confidence interval estimate of
the population mean examination score if a sample of 200
applications provided a sample mean = 935 (to the
nearest whole number)?
( , )
c Use the confidence interval to conduct a hypothesis test. Using = .05, can the assistant dean conclude that the mean examination score for the new freshman applications has changed?
d. What is the p-value (to 3 decimals)?

- At Western University the historical mean of scholarship examination scores for freshman applications is 900. Each year the assistant dean uses a sample of applications to determine whether the mean examination score for new freshman applications has changed. (a) What hypotheses is the assistant dean testing each year? (b) This year for a sample of 75 freshman, the dean finds the sample average examination score to be 875. The dean also knows that 0 = 100. What is the...
At Southern University the historical mean of scholarship examination scores for freshman applications is 900. A historical population standard deviation of ? = 100 is assumed known. Each year, the assistant dean uses a sample of applications to determine whether the mean examination score for the new freshman applications has changed. A sample of 100 applications provided a sample mean of 890. Perform the appropriate hypothesis test using ? = 0.05. Steps for the Z test for M. (Section 9.3)...
(4)Five hundred students from a local high school took a college entrance examination. Historical data from the school record show that the standard deviation of test scores is 40. A random sample of thirty- six students is taken from the entire population of 500 students. The mean test score for the sample is three hundred eighty. Find (a) 95% confidence interval for the unknown population mean test score. (b) 95% confidence interval for the unknown population mean test score if...
A local university administers a comprehensive examination to the candidates for B.S. degrees in Business Administration. Five examinations are selected at random and scored. The scores are shown below. Scores 80 90 91 62 77 a. b. Compute the mean and the standard deviation of the sample. Compute the margin of error at 95% confidence. Assume the population is normally distributed. Develop a 95% confidence interval estimate for the mean of the population. c.
The scores on an examination in biology are approximately normally distributed with mean 500 and an unknown standard deviation. The following is a random sample of scores from this examination. 419, 455, 479, 535, 540, 607 Find a 99% confidence interval for the population standard deviation. Then complete the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to at least two decimal places (If necessary, consult a list of formulas-) What is the...

The scores are shown below. Assume the population is normally distributed 54 68 75 80 98 At 95% confidence, determine an interval for the mean of the population." 35.97 to 44.19 20.06 to 27.80 54.94 to 95.06 120.04 to 150.01
1) The Law School Admission Test (LSAT) is an examination for prospective law school students. Scores on the LSAT are known to have a normal distribution and a population standard deviation of σ = 10. A random sample of 250 LSAT takers produced a sample mean of 502. What value should be used for the confidence multiplier in a 99% confidence interval for the population mean LSAT score? Group of answer choices 1.960 2.0 2.576 1.645 2) A large supermarket...
