The numbers of migraine attacks for the treatment group had a mean of 1.8 and a standard deviation of 1.4. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of (I potnt) number of migraine attacks for all people treated with acupuncture. 0 1.7 <u<1.9 O 1.5 <A<2.1 1.3 < μ <2.3 2. A sample size of n 20 is a simple random...
Section 8.3: Testing Hypotheses. In Exercises 9-24, assume that a simple random sample has been selected and test the given claim. Unless specified by your instructor, use either the P-value method or the critical value method for testing bypotheses. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses, test statistic, P-value (or range of P-values), critical value(s), and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim. 12. Discarded Plastic The weights (lb) of discarded plastic from a sample of households is listed...
A sample of 62 households was taken to measure the amount of discarded plastics. The sample mean was 1.911 lbs. and the standard deviation was 1.065 lbs. Test the hypothesis that the amount of discarded plastics per household was different from the population mean 1.800 lbs. at a significance level 0.01.

11. 45 adults used the Atkins weight loss program. After 12 months, the sample mean weight loss was found to be 2.1 lb, with a population standard deviation of 4.8 lb. Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the mean weight loss for all such subjects. a) Find the margin of error, E. b) What is the Confidence Interval? c) Interpret the confidence interval.
2. A random sample of 25 watermelons from New Seasons were weighed, generating a sample mean of xã = 21 pounds with a standard deviation of s = 3 pounds. a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the population mean weight of watermelons at New Seasons, b) Interpret: c) New Seasons claims that their watermelons have an average weight of 22 pounds. Does your sample from above provide sufficient evidence that the population mean of watermelons is actually less than...
