The admissions officer at a small college compares the scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) for the school's male and female applicants. A random sample of 17 male applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1244 with a standard deviation of 59. A random sample of 10 female applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1141 with a standard deviation of 34. Using this data, find the 99% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the scoring mean for male applicants and female applicants. Assume that the population variances are not equal and that the two populations are normally distributed.
Step 1 of 3:
Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Step 2 of 3:
Find the standard error of the sampling distribution to be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Step 3 of 3:
Construct the 99% confidence interval. Round your…
(3) The Elon Company manufactures parts for an aircraft company using three
computerized numerical controlled (CNC) turning centers. The company has to
decide which machines are capable of producing a specific part with design
specifications of 0.0970 inch ± 0.015 inch. The machines have the following
parameters: Machine 1 (x= 0.0995, o = 0.004); Machine 2 ( = 0.1002, o = 0.009);
Machine 3 (x = 0.095, o = 0.005). Determine which machines (if any) can produce
the products within the design specifications.

Suppose that you are the manager of JCPenney store. Your goal is to increase and control the rate at which store cashiers can successfully sign customers up for JCPenney credit cards. To this end, for each of the eight store cashiers, you observed 50 interactions where the cashier made an attempt to sign a customer up for credit card. The data showed that there was a total of 16 cases in which the cashiers could successfully sign the customer up for a credit card. Now, if you do not want the lower limit to be below .0052, what z-value would this imply? How confident can you be that the actual lower limit is greater than or equal to .0052?

- A television network earns an average of $25 million each season from a hit program and loses an average of $8 million each season on a program that turns out to be a flop. Of all programs picked up by this network in recent years, 25% turn out to be hits and 75% turn out to be flops. At a cost of C dollars, a market research firm will analyze a pilot episode of a prospec- tive program and issue a report predicting whether the given programwill end up being a hit. If the program is actually going to be a hit, there is a 75% chance that the market researchers will predict the program to be a hit. If the program is actually going to be a flop, there is only a 30% chance that the market researchers will predict the program to be a hit.a.
