You sample 100 apples from your farm's harvest of over 200,000 apples. The mean weight of the sample is 112 grams. Let's assume that you know the weight of all apples produced by your farm is normally distributed and the standard deviation of the weight is 40 grams. If we want to double the length of the confidence interval found in Part (1) while keeping the same sample size to be 100, what is the confidence level should we choose...

Bob the Quality Control Engineer wishes to determine the mean mass of apples grown in Tallula's orchard. A sample of 7 randomly-chosen apples has a mean mass of 112 g with a sample standard deviation of 32 g. Using a t-distribution, find a 90% one-sided lower confidence bound on the population mean mass of apples in grams. Give your answer to one decimal place.

Please determine for each of the following whether you REJECT H0 or DO NOT REJECT H0. a. The tails for a two-tailed hypothesis test for the mean are defined by values z = ± 1.69. The test value is z = –1.83. b. The test statistic for a right-tailed hypothesis test for the mean with 99% confidence is z = 1.45. c. The test statistic for a two-tailed hypothesis test for the standard deviation is χ2 = 6.32. The sample...

Using confidence intervals to determine how many samples you’ll need to collect so the average voltage will be within the desired accuracy. This will take some assumptions and some work. So, here goes: The confidence interval (CI) equation is: Assume that the voltage you are measuring has a true mean (of course we don’t know the actual mean or true value, but that’s OK) of approximately 1 volt. Next, suppose you desire to know your average () vs “true” value...

3. A psychologist is studying learning in rts. The psychologist wants to determine the average time required for rats to learn to traverse a maze. She randomly selects 40 rats and records the time it takes for the rats to traverse the maze in minutes. The sample average time required for the rats to traverse the maze is 5 minutes with a standard deviation of 1 minute. Estimate the average time required for rats to learn to traverse the maze...

You randomly select 16 coffee shops and measure the temperature of the coffee sold at each. The sample mearn temperature is 162.0°F with a sample standard deviation of 10.0"E Construct a 90% and a 99% confidence interval for the population mean temperature of coffee sold in the previous example. Assume the temperatures are approximately normally distributed Compare the widths of the confidence intervals.
