A study of North York University students showed the mean age of all students in the first year of university to be 19.6 years old with a standard deviation of 1.06 years. A randomly selected subgroup of these first-year students also averaged 19.4 years in age with a standard deviation 1.05 years. a) Are the numbers 19.6 and 1.06 statistics or parameters? Explain. The numbers are parameters because they were calculated for all North York University's first-year students. The numbers...

2) Bon Air Elementary School has 300 students. The principal of the school thinks that the average IQ of students at Bon Air is 110. To prove her point, she administers an IQ test to 20 randomly selected students. Among the sampled students, the average IQ is 107 with a standard deviation of 6, suggesting that the average IQ is lower than she thought. Based on these results, should the principal accept or reject her original hypothesis? Assume a significance...
