- The average Vogon can consume then Pan- Galactic Gargle Blasters at one sitting, with a standard deviation of 2.7. Assuming that the number of Pan- galactic Gargle Blasters able to be consumed is approximately normal, find the probability that a randomly selected Vogon can consume:
- More than 6 Pan-Galactic Gargle Blasters
- Between 8 and 15 Pan- Galactic Gargle Blasters
- The average Vogon can consume then Pan- Galactic Gargle Blasters at one sitting, with a standard deviation of 2.7. Suppose we take random samples of 49 Vogons at a time and determine how Pan- Galactic Gargle Blasters they can consume in one sitting. We want to consider the distribution of the sample means for those samples, x̅.
- What is μx̅, the mean of the sample means?
- What is σx̅ , the standard error of the sample means?

Suppose that monthly internet access fees for households average $58, with a standard deviation of $27. The distribution of internet access fees is skewed, with most households having cheaper plans, and a few paying much more. 500 randomly-selected households with Internet access were asked how much they pay per month. (a) State the distribution of the mean monthly access fee in such samples. (b) Why is it that you can identify the distribution in part (a)? (c) What is the...

Applied Assignment, Module 09 (This module is holiday-themed, but a week late-sorry!) Did you know that leprechauns LOVE Guinness Stout? in fact, leprechauns do not have to consume anything else to survive; they simply get all of their calories from Guinness Stout. If a standard, 12-ounce Guinness bottle has only 125 calories, then a leprechaun would need to consume 16 bottles of Guinness per day, assuming that they have the same daily caloric need as humans (i.e., 2,000 calories per...

The average yield of the standard variety off soybeans per acre on a farm in a region is 48.8 bushels per acre, with a standard deviation of 12.0 bushels per acre. We have developed a new variety of soybean that we believe will have a higher mean yield per acre. To test this, we draw a random sample of 36 one-acre plots from the region, plant the new variety of soybean, and compute the sample mean yield per acre. The...

You are curious about the average number of yards Matthew Stafford throws for each game for the Detroit Lions. You randomly select 23 games and see that the average yards per game is 344.5 with a standard deviation of 27.8 yards. You want to create a 95% confidence interval for the true average number of yards per game he throws. What is the margin of error for this estimate? Question 1 options: 1) 1.5833 2) 5.7967 3) 12.0216 4) 9.9538...

5. Using z-scores with the distribution of sample means On each trial of a digit span memory task, the partiapant is asked to read aloud a string of random digits. The partidpant must then repeat the digits in the correct order. If the participant is successful, the length of the next string is increased by one. For instance, if the partidpant repeats four digits successfully, she will hear five random digits on the next trial. The partiipant's score is the...

ndependent random samples are taken at a university to compare the average GPA of seniors to the average GPA of sophomores. Given a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the true average GPAs (seniors - sophomores) of (0, 1.13), what can you conclude? Question 9 options: 1) We are 95% confident that the difference between the two sample GPAs falls within the interval. 2) We are 95% confident that the average GPA of seniors is greater than the average...
