Look at one of the marginal distributions described, and consider either value a success. Estimate the true population proportion for this value with a 95% confidence interval. (Hint: you may need to use the plus-four method if the sample size is too small.) We are now going to treat the sample as being two separate samples from two populations. One of the populations being compared is the population described in your conditional distribution (from problem 10). The other will be the rest of the sample. (An example is given below on how to form populations out of your Project 1 results.) Do these two populations have significantly different proportions successes?

If you let X1, X2, X3, X4 equal the cholesterol level of a woman under the age of 50, a man under 50, a woman 50 or older, and a man 50 or older, respectively. Assuming the distribution of Xi is N(μi, σ2), i = 1, 2, 3, 4 and you test the null hypothesis H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4, using seven observations of each Xi, what would be the critical region for an alpha = 0.05 significance level?
Problem 1 Assume body heights (inches) for the population of 8-year old boys are: X-N(My 51, 0y = 3). If we choose 100 boys at random, what is the probability that their average height exceeds 50 inches? In the class, we apply the statistical knowledge about sampling distribution of the sample mean, denoted by X; that is, 8~NAxox/n) to solve this question analytically Now, please solve this question numerically computationally. That is, you should use simulation to compute a numerical approximate of the probability. Submit your R code and output with a brief description or explanation of your solution (Hint: you should use the rmorm function instead of pnorm function in R.)
