We claim that the body mass index (BMI) for men is statistically the same as the BMI for women. Data from a random sample of 40 men and 40 women is presented below:

BMI-M		BMI-F

Mean	25.9975	Mean	25.74
Standard Error	0.542448	Standard Error	0.974862
Median	26.2	Median	23.9
Mode	23.8	Mode	19.6
Standard Deviation	3.430742	Standard Deviation	6.16557
Sample Variance	11.76999	Sample Variance	38.01426
Kurtosis	-0.13645	Kurtosis	1.517743
Skewness	0.356785	Skewness	1.189501
Range	13.6	Range	27.2
Minimum	19.6	Minimum	17.7
Maximum	33.2	Maximum	44.9
Sum	1039.9	Sum	1029.6
Count	40	Count	40
Confidence Level(95.0%)	1.097205	Confidence Level(95.0%)	1.971845

use a classical test of hypothesis to test the claim that the two means are statistically equal.

Show all the steps and come to a conclusion.

Expert Solution

We conclude that the two means are statistically equal.

The data file contains the Body Mass Index (BMI) for a sample of men and a sample of women. Two of the columns, OW_male and OW_female code the BMI values as: 0 - if BMI ≤ 25.4 (these are considered “not overweight”); 1 - if BMI >= 25.5 (these are considered “overweight”). (a) Test whether there is sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of overweight males (proportion of males who are overweight) is different than the proportion of overweight...

Design a modular program that calculates and displays a person's body mass index (BMI). The BMI is often used to determine whether a person with a sedentary lifestyle is overweight or underweight for his or her height. A person's BMI is calculated with the following formula: BMI=Weight*703/Height^2. I need help making this to Java to just calculate BMI.

Body mass index (BMI) is a reliable indicator of body fat for most children and teens. BMI is calculated from a child’s weight and height and is used as an easy-to-perform method of screening for weight categories that may lead to health problems. For children and teens, BMI is age- and sex-specific and is often referred to as BMI-for-age. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports BMI-for-age growth charts for girls as well as boys to obtain a...
