Monthly rent paid by undergraduates and graduate students.

Undergraduate Student Rents (n = 10)
810	770	870	710	730
830	820	660	980	700

Graduate Student Rents (n = 12)
1,150	910	920	860	780	910
740	820	940	920	830	880

(a) Construct a 90 percent confidence interval for the difference of mean monthly rent paid by undergraduates and graduate students, using the assumption of unequal variances with Welch's formula for d.f. (Do not round the intermediate calculations. Round your final answers to 3 decimal places. Negative values should be indicated by a minus sign.)

The 90% confidence interval is from which number to which number?

In a study about undergraduate student credit card usage, it was reported that undergraduate students have a mean credit card balance of $3173 (Sallie Mae, April 2009). This figure was an all-time high and had increased 44% over the previous five years. Assume that a current study is being conducted to determine if it can be concluded that the mean credit card balance for undergraduate students has continued to increase compared to the April 2009 report. Based on previous studies,...

3. It is frequently difficult for graduate schools to compare students from different undergraduate programs since universities have vastly different scales of assessment. Some schools, for example, are known to in ate grades while others maintain more rigorous grading standards. Say that you are a graduate school admissions officer charged with selecting those applicants that have the best undergraduate grades relative to their peers. You must decide between two students - one from Princeton and one from Temple. The Princeton...

Scenario 8.2 The undergraduate grade point average (GPA) for students admitted to the top graduate business schools was 3.37. Assume this estimate was based on a sample of 90 students admitted to the top schools. Using past years' data, the population standard deviation can be assumed known as 0.30. 1. Based on the information in Scenario 8.2, you are to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean undergraduate GPA for students admitted to the top graduate business schools,...
