How many women must be randomly selected to estimate the mean weight of women in one age group. We want 90% confidence that the sample mean is within 2.31b of the population mean, and the population standard deviation is known to be 14 lb. 143 126 101 202
Consider a population having a standard deviation equal to 9.96. We wish to estimate the mean of this population. (a) How large a random sample is needed to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean of this population with a margin of error equal to 1? (Round your answer to the next whole number.) The random sample is units. (b) Suppose that we now take a random sample of the size we have determined in part a. If we...
An admissions director wants to estimate the mean age of all students enrolled at a college. The estimate must be within 1.7 years of the population mean. Assume the population of ages is normally distributed. (a) Determine the minimum sample size required to construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Assume the population standard deviation is 1.8 years. (b) The sample mean is 20 years of age. Using the minimum sample size with a 90% level of confidence,...
Research question: In the population of all American adults, how strong is the relationship between age and reaction time? Data were collected from a representative sample of 500 American adults concerning their ages (in years) and reaction times (in milliseconds). What procedure should be used to estimate the strength of this relationship in the population? CI for single mean CI for single proportion CI for difference in means CI for difference in proportions CI for correlation 2Research question: To what...
6) How many women must be randomly selected to estimate the mean weight of women in one age group. We want 90% confidence that the sample mean is within 3.4 lb of the population mean, and the population standard deviation is known to be 25 lb.
An admissions director wants to estimate the mean age of all students enrolled at a college. The estimate must be within 1.5 years of the population mean. Assume the population of ages is normally distributed. (a) Determine the minimum sample size required to construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Assume the population standard deviation is 1.6 years. (b) The sample mean is 20 years of age. Using the minimum sample size with a 90% level of confidence,...
A study of women’s weights found that a randomly selected sample of 150 women had a mean weight of 147.3 lb. Assuming that the population standard deviation is 19.6 lb., construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean weight of all women. Choose the correct interval from below: Choose one • 10 points (144.211, 150.389) (140.611, 146.789) (144.667, 149.933) (144.163, 150.437)
An admissions director wants to estimate the mean age of all students enrolled at a college. The estimate must be within 1.1 years of the population mean. Assume the population of ages is normally distributed (a) Determine the minimum sample size required to construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Assume the population standard deviation is 1.7 years (b) The sample mean is 21 years of age. Using the minimum sample size with a 90% level of confidence,...
Assume that you want to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of a population mean. Find an estimate of the sample size needed to obtain the specified margin of error for the 95% confidence interval. The sample standard deviation is given below. Margin of error equals$5, standard deviation equals$19 The required sample size is __.
Assume that you want to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of a population mean. Find an estimate of the sample size needed to obtain the specified margin of error for the 95% confidence interval. The sample standard deviation is given below. Margin of error =$5,standard deviation=$25 The required sample size is ????? (Round up to the nearest whole number as needed.)
