How would this confidence interval be affected if the random sample was for 16 employees? Work out the new interval, rounding again to 3 decimal places. How large a sample would be needed to estimate the mean hours to within ±0.50 hours at the 95% confidence level?
The effectiveness of a blood-pressure drug is being investigated. An experimenter finds that, on average, the reduction in systolic blood pressure is 56.8 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) for a sample of size 1090 and a sample standard deviation 17.5 mmHg. How much of mmHg will lower for a typical patient's systolic blood pressure after taking the drug? Estimate with a 90% confidence.

A report in a research journal states that the average weight loss of people on a certain drug is 34 lbs with a margin of error of ±2 lbs with confidence level C = 95%. (a) According to this information, the mean weight loss of people on this drug, ?, could be as low as lbs. (b) If the study is repeated, how large should the sample size be so that the margin of error would be less than 1 lbs? (Assume σ= 7 lbs.)ANSWER:

what is the sampling error desired? In a sample of n=19 lichen specimens, the researchers found the mean and standard deviation of the amount of the radioactive element, cesium-137, that was present to be 0.009 and 0.006 microcurie per milliliter, respectively. Suppose the researchers want to increase the sample size in order to estimate the mean μ to within 0.002 microcurie per milliliter of its true value, using a 95% confidence interval. Complete parts a through c.

Only 16% of registered voters voted in the last election. Will voter participation change for the upcoming election? Of the 347 randomly selected registered voters surveyed, 59 of them will vote in the upcoming election. What can be concluded at the α = 0.01 level of significance The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) Based on this, we should Select an answer accept fail to reject reject the null hypothesis. Thus, the final conclusion is that ... A) The data suggest the populaton proportion is significantly different from 16% at αα = 0.01, so there is statistically significant evidence to conclude that the the percentage of all registered voters who will vote in the upcoming election will be different from 16%. B) The data suggest the population proportion is not significantly different from 16% at αα= 0.01, so there is statistically insignificant evidence to conclude that the percentage of registered voters who will vote in the upcoming election will be…
A plan for an executive travelers’ club has been developed by an airline on the premise that 5% of its current customers would qualify for membership. A random sample of 500 customers yielded 40 who would qualify. Is there significant evidence to show that the proportion of customers from the sample who would qualify for membership is larger than 5%(the current proportion). What is the p-value? (using three decimal places) What is the conclusion? What type of error is at risk?
