Suppose we are interested in analyzing the weights of NFL players. We know that on average, NFL players weigh 247 pounds with a population standard deviation of 47 pounds. Suppose we take a sample of 30 new players and we find that the average weight from that sample is 237 pounds. We are interested in seeing if the weight of NFL players is decreasing. Show work. What is the standard error? What is the margin of error at 90% confidence?...
