Suppose we are interested in how well people do on a
standardized test when they take it for a second time. In a random
sample of 400 students who took the test for a second time,
students gained an average of X-bar = 12 points. Let’s say that the
sample comes from a population with σ = 42. The 95% confidence
interval for μ (the mean point gain) is:
μ = 12 ± (1.96) (42/√400) = 12 ± 4.12

it is known from previous studies that the population
standard deviation equals 0.25 ounces.
a. What formula would you use to set up a 95% confidence
interval for the true mean?

Three randomly selected households are surveyed. The numbers of
people in the households are 1, 2, and 12. Assume that samples of
size nequals2 are randomly selected with replacement from the
population of 1, 2, and 12. Construct a probability distribution
table that describes the sampling distribution of the proportion of
odd numbers when samples of sizes nequals2 are randomly selected.
Does the mean of the sample proportions equal the proportion of odd
numbers in the population? Do the sample...

Do men take a different amount of time than women to get out of
bed in the morning? The 42 men observed averaged 6.2 minutes to get
out of bed after the alarm rang. Their standard deviation was 2.7.
The 60 women observed averaged 5 minutes and their standard
deviation was 2.2 minutes. What can be concluded at the α = 0.10
level of significance? For this study, we should use The null and

Oishi and Shigehiro (2010) report that people who move from home
to home frequently as children tend to have lower than average
well-being as adults. To further examine this relationship, a
psychologist obtains a sample of 12 young adults who each
experienced 5 or more different homes before they were 16 years
old. These participants were given a standardized questionnaire for
which the general population has an average score of 40. For this
sample, the average well-being score was 37...
