Birth weight and gestational age. The Child Health and Development Studies considered pregnancies among women in the San Francisco East Bay area. Researchers took a random sample of 50 pregnancies and used statistical software to construct a linear regression model to predict a baby's birth weight in ounces using the gestation age (the number of days the mother was pregnant). A portion of the computer output and the scatter plot is shown below. Round all calculated results to four decimal...

Healthy women aged 18 to 40 participated in a study of eating habits. Subjects were given bags of potato chips and bottled water and invited to snack freely. Interviews showed that some women were trying to restrain their diet out of concern about their weight. How much effect did these good intentions have on their eating habits? Here are the data on grams of potato chips consumed (note that the study report gave the standard error of the mean rather...

3. A drug company is developing a new pregnancy-test kit for use on an outpatient basis. The company uses the pregnancy test on 100 women who are known to be pregnant, for whom 95 test results are positive. The company uses the pregnancy test on 100 other women who are known to not be pregnant, of whom 99 test negative. (a) What is the sensitivity of the test? (b) What is the specificity of the test? (c) The company anticipates...

Suppose that a simple random sample of size ?=320 contains 168 successes. Calculate the margin of error, ? , needed to construct a 95% confidence interval for proportion of successes in the population, ? . You might find this table of ? ‑distributions or this list of software manuals useful. Find the sample proportion, ?̂ , the standard error estimate, SE, the positive critical value, ? , and the margin of error, ? . Give all answers precise to at...

10 The New York Times surveyed a random sample of 1,025 women on various issues. One question asked was "Many women have better jobs and more opportunities than they did 20 year ago. Do you agree?" The Times found the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all women who would say "Yes" to this statement to be 40.6% to 46.8%, what is the margin of error for the computed confidence interval? a). 3.1% e).

100 random samples were taken, and for each random sample we made a 95% confidence interval, about how many of those 100 confidence intervals would actually contain the parameter? Increasing the confidence level (more than one) a increase the width of a confidence interval b increase the probability that the parameter is in the confidence interval c increase the percentage of samples which will create a confidence interval that contains the parameter d Increase the margin of error A...
