A random sample of the birth weights of 186 babies has a mean of 3103 g and a standard deviation of 676 g. Construct a 98% confidence interval estimate of the mean birth weight for all such babies. 4 Click the icon to view a table of critical t-values. What is the confidence interval estimate of the mean birth weight for all such babies? g < µ < g (Round to one decimal place as needed.)

A study comparing birth weight to IQ found 255 subjects (sample 1) with extremely low birth weights had IQ scores at age 8 with a mean of 93.9 and a standard deviation of 15.6. The control group of 282 subjects (sample 2) with normal birth weights had IQ scores with a mean of 95.4 and a standard deviation of 13.2 at age 8. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the difference between the mean IQs of the two groups. Do not assume the population standard deviations are equal. Does IQ score appear to be affected by weight? 1 Click the icon to view the table of critical values. Find the 95% confidence interval. < μ1 - μ2 < (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Does the confidence interval show that low birth weight affects IQ? A. No, because the confidence interval does not include zero. B. Yes, because the confidence interval includes zero. C. Yes, because the confidence interval does not include zero. D. No, because the confidence interval includes zero.

A simple random sample from a population with a normal distribution of 98 body temperatures has x¯ = 98.20◦F and s = 0.63◦F. Construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of the standard deviation of body temperature of all healthy humans. Is it safe to conclude that the population standard deviation is less than 1.20◦F ? 11 Click the icon to view the table of Chi-Square critical values. ◦F < σ < ◦F (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Is it safe to conclude that the population standard deviation is less than 1.20◦F ? A. This conclusion is not safe because 1.20◦F is in the confidence interval. B. This conclusion is safe because 1.20◦F is outside the confidence interval. C. This conclusion is not safe because 1.20◦F is outside the confidence interval. D. This conclusion is safe because 1.20◦F is in the confidence interval.

Twelve different video games showing substance use were observed and the duration of times of game play (in seconds) are listed below. The design of the study justifies the assumption that the sample can be treated as a simple random sample. Use the sample data to construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of σ, the standard deviation of the duration times of game play. Assume that this sample was obtained from a population with a normal distribution. 4,684 3,879 4,671 4,076 4,832 4,197 4,593 4,974 4,208 4,914 4,800 4,544 13 Click the icon to view the table of Chi-Square critical values. The confidence interval estimate is sec < σ < sec. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
