The U.S. Department of Energy reported that 51.7% of homes were heated by natural gas. A random sample of 221 homes in Kentucky found that 115 were heated by natural gas. Does the evidence support the claim for Kentucky at the a = 0.05 level? Are the results applicable across the country? Why?
Unfortunately, arsenic occurs naturally in some ground water. A mean arsenic level of u = 8 parts per billion (ppb) is considered safe for agricultural use. A well in Los Banos is used to water cotton crops. This well is tested on a regular basis for arsenic. A random sample of 37 tests gave a sample mean of = 7.3ppb arsenic. It is known that o = 1.9 ppb for this type of data. Does this information indicate that the mean level of arsenic in this well is less than 8 ppb? Use the classical approach. Use a = 0.01 What is the Decision (step 5) for this problem? There is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level of significance to show the mean arsenic level in the Los Banos well is less than 7.3 ppb. O There is sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level of significance to show the mean arsenic level in the Los Banos well is less than 8.0 ppb. There is not sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level of significance to show the mean arsenic level in the Los Banos well is less than 8.0 ppb. O There is…
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis are at a greater risk of developing osteoporosis. The reasons are not well understood due to the difficulty in qualitatively assessing bone metabolism and mineral content. A researcher measures human calcitonin (HCT) levels in men with rheumatoid arthritis. The researcher randomly selects 43 men with rheumatoid arthritis and measured the mean HCT level of 33.8 pg/mL. Assume that HCT for individuals with rheumatoid arthritis follows a normal distribution with standard deviation σ = 23.6 pg/mL. 5. What is the effect on the interval width if we decreased or increase the confidence level to 90% or 99% respectively? (Hint, create the intervals)
