An article reports that the average initial rate of absorption (in g/min·cm2) for a sample of five clay bricks with fine glass particles added was 1299.8 with a standard deviation of 329.8, and the average for another sample of five bricks without glass particles added was 4500.8 with a standard deviation of 271.6. Let μXμX represent the population mean without glass particles and let μYμY represent the population mean with glass particles. Find a 98% confidence interval for the difference μX−μYμX−μY. Round down the degrees of freedom to the nearest integer and round the answers to three decimal places.
A random sample of 100 observations from a quantitative population produced a sample mean of 28.0 and a sample standard deviation of 6.5. Use the p-value approach to determine whether the population mean is different from 31.
Arsenic occurs naturally in some ground water and can be toxic. A mean arsenic level of μ=9μ=9 parts per billion (ppb) is considered safe for agricultural use. A well in San Bernardino County is used to water strawberry crops. This well is tested on a regular basis for arsenic. A random sample of 46 tests gave a sample mean of 8 ppb arsenic, with a sample standard deviation of 5.4 ppb. Does this information indicate that the mean level of arsenic in this well is different from μ=9μ=9 ppb? Use α=0.05α=0.05What is the level of significance? State the null and alternate hypotheses.
