A chemist measures the haptoglobin concentrations (in grams per liter) in the blood of eight healthy adults. Following are the values: 1.82 ,3.32, 1.07, 0.27, 0.49, 3.79, 0.15, 1.98 Obtain a 95% confidence interval for the mean haptoglobin concentration in adults.

5. The level of calcium in the blood in healthy young adults varies with a mean of about 9.5 mg per liter and standard deviation of about 0.4. A clinic in rural Guatemala measures the blood calcium of 180 healthy pregnant women at their first visit for prenatal care. The mean is 9.58. Is this an indication that the mean calcium level from which these women come is greater than 9.5? (Assume s = 0.4) a. Give a 90% confidence...

You have measured the blood hemoglobin concentrations in a random sample of 12 males aged 20-29 years and have obtained the following values in mg/dL: [ 14.7, 15.22, 15.28, 16.58, 15.1, 15.66, 15.91, 14.41, 14.73, 15.09, 15.62, 14.92] Calculate the following from the above sample: 1.95% confidence interval for the mean hemoglobin concentration in the population of 20-29 year old males. 2. 99% confidence interval for the mean hemoglobin concentration in the same population 3. 95% confidence interval for the...
My Ask You C-reactive protein (CRP) is a substance that can be measured in the blood. Values increase substantially within & hours of an infection and reach a peak within 24 to 48 hours after. In adults, chronically high values have been linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. In a study of apparently healthy children aged 6 to 60 months in Papua New Guinea, CRP was measured in 90 children. The units are milligrams per liter (mg/l). Here...
