1) A researcher is studying the heights of men with a certain medical condition. She collects a sample of 37 such men and finds the mean height of the sample to be x̄ = 64.6 inches. Assume that the standard deviation of heights of men with the condition is the same as that of the general population, σ = 2.8 inches. a) Find a 99% confidence interval for the true mean height of the population of mean with this condition....

The average number of miles a person drives per day is 24. A researcher wishes to see if people over age 60 drive less than 24 miles per day. She selects a random sample of27 drivers over the age of 60 and finds that the mean number of miles driven is 22.2. The population standard deviation is miles 3.7. At a=0.05, is there sufficient evidence that those drivers over 60 years old drive less than 24 miles per day on...

Question 1 Yellow seed color is dominant to green seed color. A green seeded plant is crossed with a heterozygous plant. What phenotypic and genotypic ratios would you predict in the offspring? If I planted 200 of these offspring, how many would be green? How many would be yellow? Explain how you solved the problem.

A farmer wishes to test the effects of a new fertilizer on her tomato yield. She has four equal-sized plots of land-- one with sandy soil, one with rocky soil, one with clay-rich soil, and one with average soil. She divides each of the four plots into three equal-sized portions and randomly labels them A, B, and C. The four A portions of land are treated with her old fertilizer. The four B portions are treated with the new fertilizer,...
