Let x be a random variable that represents red blood cell count (RBC) in millions of cells per cubic millimeter of whole blood. Then x has a distribution that is approximately normal. For the population of healthy female adults, suppose the mean of the x distribution is about 4.66. Suppose that a female patient has taken six laboratory blood tests over the past several months and that the RBC count data sent to the patient's doctor are as follows.
| 4.9 | 4.2 | 4.5 | 4.1 | 4.4 | 4.3 |
(i) Use a calculator with sample mean and standard deviation keys to find x and s. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
| x | = | |
| s | = |
(ii) Do the given data indicate that the population mean RBC count
for this patient is lower than 4.66? Use α = 0.05.
(a) What is the level of significance?
State the null and alternate hypotheses.
H0: μ > 4.66; H1: μ = 4.66H0: μ = 4.66; H1: μ < 4.66 H0: μ < 4.66; H1: μ = 4.66H0: μ = 4.66; H1: μ ≠ 4.66H0: μ = 4.66; H1: μ > 4.66
(b) What sampling distribution will you use? Explain the rationale
for your choice of sampling distribution.
The standard normal, since we assume that x has a normal distribution and σ is unknown.The Student's t, since we assume that x has a normal distribution and σ is unknown. The Student's t, since we assume that x has a normal distribution and σ is known.The standard normal, since we assume that x has a normal distribution and σ is known.
What is the value of the sample test statistic? (Round your answer
to three decimal places.)
(c) Estimate the P-value.
P-value > 0.2500.100 < P-value < 0.250 0.050 < P-value < 0.1000.010 < P-value < 0.050P-value < 0.010
Sketch the sampling distribution and show the area corresponding to
the P-value.
(d) Based on your answers in parts (a) to (c), will you reject or
fail to reject the null hypothesis? Are the data statistically
significant at level α?
At the α = 0.05 level, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are statistically significant.At the α = 0.05 level, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are not statistically significant. At the α = 0.05 level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are statistically significant.At the α = 0.05 level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude the data are not statistically significant.
(e) Interpret your conclusion in the context of the
application.
There is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level to conclude that the population mean RBC count for the patient is lower than 4.66.There is insufficient evidence at the 0.05 level to conclude that the population mean RBC count for the patient is lower than 4.66.

Let x be a random variable that represents red blood cell count (RBC) in millions of cells per cubic millimeter of whole blood. Then x has a distribution that is approximately normal. For the population of healthy female adults, suppose the mean of the x distribution is about 4.74.

Describe the data
Research wants to know what proportion of students graduate of the manicurist class in 2018 from WBI have a California State Board Manicurist License. The researcher asks the following question:
“Are you have a California State Board manicurist License yes or not?”. The Source of Bias is Sampling Bias because the technique used to obtain the individuals to be a sample tends to favor one part of the population over another.

The standard error of the estimate of the mean is represented by the equation: σ√n Discuss what this equation means, using your own words and explain why we use it. Consider how it relates to the fact that we are making assumptions about the population and not just the sample.

You have been hired as the new marketing manager for a manufacturer of industrial fork lifts. One of your first tasks is to identify market segments for their products. Thinking about the requirements for effective market segments, what criteria would you use for evaluating the desirability of potential market segments? Identify the criteria, and in a sentence or two explain what each of the criteria means.

How may I respond to this post from philosophical investigations paragraps 200-315 thx
PI: 220-315
In this particular section of the Investigations we
see Wittgenstein, in line 232, again address one of the main issues
behind what he’s trying to explain about philosophy which is the
loss of understanding between one person or another because the way
we understand and use language is different from other people. In
this particular line, 232, Wittgenstein states that he cannot teach
his way of obeying rules to someone else because someone else may
have a different interpretation of how to obey rules and the
significance of the language behind rules but ultimately both
parties reach the same conclusions. Despite Wittgenstein saying
that everyone’s interpretation of language is different,
particularly in the realm of rules, everyone should reach the same
conclusion because if not everyone is reaching the same conclusion
then therefore there is no validity to language. If there is no
validity to language then it has no practical use for people and
therefore we would not have any understanding of the world and
everything in it.
