Betsy is currently completing a school teaching placement in order to become an elementary school teacher. One component of the placement includes evaluations from teachers at the school. Evaluations of student teachers are normally distributed with µ = 100 and σ = 12. Betsy is informed that she must score within the interquartile range of this distribution on her evaluations in order to be certified as an elementary school teacher. Which scores encompass the range that Betsy may score to successfully become certified as an elementary school teacher?

A snack food manufacturer estimates that the variance of the number of grams of carbohydrates in servings of its tortilla chips is 1.34. A dietician is asked to test this claim and finds that a random sample of 16 servings has a variance of 1.22. At α=0.05, is there enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim? Assume the population is normally distributed. Complete parts (a) through (e) below.
A snack food manufacturer estimates that the variance of the number of grams of carbohydrates in servings of its tortilla chips is 1.141.14. A dietician is asked to test this claim and finds that a random sample of 2424 servings has a variance of 0.950.95. At alpha equals 0.10α=0.10, is there enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim? Assume the population is normally distributed.

Records for the last 15 years have shown that the average rainfall in a certain region of the country, for the month of March, to be 1.20 inches, with s = 0.45 inches. A second region had an average rainfall of 1.35 inches, with s = 0.54. estimate the difference of the true average rainfalls in those two regions as a 95% C.I. with the assumption of normal populations and unequal variances.

A Data analytics professor wants to know whether level of college education influences the grade earned by students in his course. Last semester, 400 students completed his class: 150 freshmen, 100 sophomores, 100 juniors, and 50 seniors. At end of the semester, 80 students earned an A, 148 earned a B, and 172 earned a C. The distribution of grades is shown in the following table. Do a chi-square test at alpha=0.05. What is the null hypothesis for this test? A. The letter grades of the students are significantly different. B. The letter grades of the students are dependent of the level of college education. C. The letter grades of the students are identical. D. The letter grades of the students are independent of the level of college education.
In a survey of 180 females who recently completed high school, 75% were enrolled in college. In a survey of 160 males who recently completed high school, 70% were enrolled in college. At α=0.07, can you reject the claim that there is no difference in the proportion of college enrollees between the two groups? Assume the random samples are independent. Complete parts (a) through (e). Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s).
