In a controlled and scientifically valid study of sleeping pills, 40 people who took Pill A averaged 7.5 hours of sleep, with a standard deviation of 1.5 hours, while 40 people who took Pill B averaged 8 hours of sleep, with a standard deviation of 2 hours. Is there enough evidence to support the assertion that Pill B is more effective than Pill A to a 95% confidence interval? Explain.
According to a report on sleep deprivation by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the proportion of California residents who reported insufficient rest or sleep during each of the preceding 30 days is 8.0%, while this proportion is 8.8% for Oregon residents. These data are based on simple random samples of 11,545 California and 4,691 Oregon residents. Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of Californians and Oregonians who are sleep deprived and interpret it in context of the data.
a. interpret the corresponding 95% confidence intervals for both Birth weight and Age.
b. What is the predicted average SBP of an infant born with birth weight 8lbs (128oz) measured at 3 days old? c. Calculate the Pearson correlation between Age and Birth weight, and test if this correlation is significant at the 0.05 level. Does this answer surprise you, why or why not?
