The mean weight of newborn babies in a Long Island Community is
7.5 lbs. with a standard deviation of 1.4 lbs. What is the
probability that a random sample of 49 babies has a mean weight of
at least 7.2 lbs?
The sample birth weight of 16 infants in a local community is
7.5 lbs with a standard deviation of 1.5 lbs. A census has revealed
that national birth weight is 6,5 lbs.
1. Compute the test statistic to test if the average
birth weight in the local community differs from that of the
national average. Leave your answer correct up to 3 decimal
places.
2. State the critical value(s) to test the above
hypothesis at alpha=.01
a. ± 2.947
b....
Suppose that the mean weight of newborn babies is normally
distributed with a mean of 6.9 pounds and a standard deviation of
0.8 pound. A developmental psychologist wants to test whether
newborn babies of mothers who use drugs during pregnancy differ in
weight from the average baby. The psychologist takes a random
sample of 30 mothers who used drugs during pregnancy and computes
the mean birth weight of these mothers’ babies. This sample of 30
mothers has a sample mean...
The weight of newborn babies are normally distributed with a
mean of 7.62 pounds and a standard deviation of 0.61 pounds. If the
weight of 22 newborn are randomly selected, what's the probability
that their mean weight is more than 7.23 pounds? Round to 4-decimal
places
27. The mean weight of 10 randomly selected newborn babies at a
local hospital is 7.14 lbs and the standard deviation is 0.87 lbs.
Assume the weight of newborn babies has approximately normal
distribution. a. Find the margin of error for the 90% confidence
interval for the mean weight of all newborn babies at this
hospital. b. Use information from part (a) to fill in the blanks in
the following sentence: __________ of all samples of size _____
have sample...
The mean weight of 50% newborn babies selected from 60 randomly
at a local hospital. Assume the weight of newborn babies has
approximately normal distribution. a. Find the Critical Value 99%
for the mean weight of all newborn babies at this hospital. b. Find
the Margin of Error for the 99% confidence interval all newborn
babies at this hospital. c. Find a 99% Confidence Interval for the
mean weight of all newborn babies at this hospital.
A sample of the birth weight for 25 newborn male babies was
taken from babies whose mother took prenatal vitamin supplements.
The results of the study showed an average birth weight of 3.953 kg
and a standard deviation of 0.552 kg. The claim is that taking
vitamin supplements increase the baby’s birth weight. The mean
birth weight for all male babies is 3.58 kg
1. What can you conclude by comparing the 95% Confidence
Interval and the mean weigh of...
The weights for newborn babies is approximately normally
distributed with a mean of 5lbs and a standard deviation of 1.5lbs.
Consider a group of 1,000 newborn babies:
How many would you expect to weigh between 4-7lbs?
How many would you expect to weigh less than 6lbs?
How many would you expect to weigh more than 5lbs?
How many would you expect to weigh between 5-10lbs?
The birthweight of newborn babies is Normally distributed with a
mean of 3.39 kg and a standard deviation of
0.55 kg.
(a) Find the probability that a baby chosen at random will have
a birthweight of over 3.5 kg.
(b) Find the probability that an SRS of 16 babies will have an
average birthweight of over 3.5 kg.
(c) Find the probability that an SRS of 100 babies will have an
average birthweight of over 3.5 kg.
(d) What range...
In the U.S., newborn babies weight an average of 7.2 pounds (μ).
The standard deviation is 1.22 pounds (σ). The population
distribution of birth weights is roughly Normal. You draw a simple
random sample of 60 births from the population and find that the
sample mean is 7.4 pounds. NOTE: Use the most precise estimate of z
or z* you can in these problems as in all your written results.
Draw a picture of the distribution, label, and shade as...
The distribution of weights of newborn babies is bell shaped
with a mean of 3200 grams and standard deviation of 450 grams.
a. what percentage of newborn babies weigh between 2300 and 4100
grams?
I have already done part A
Part b asks What percentage of newborn babies weigh less then
2300 grams?
I need to know how to do that on a ti84 plus calculator
