Aschool psychologist reports that the mean number of hours the students at this school sleep each night is 8 hours. the students believe the mean is not 8 hours. to find an estimate of the true mean, they select a random sample of 15 students from their school and ask how many hours each slept last night. a stemplot and boxplot of the numbers of hours are shown here. t he sample mean is 6.67 hours with a sample standard deviation of 1.88 hours. a. verify that the conditions for computing a confidence interval are met in this case. b. compute and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours the students at this school sleep each night.

Airline passengers arrive randomly and independently at the passenger-screening facility at a major international airport. the mean arrival rate is 10 passengers per minutes. compute the following probabilities. p(x = 4) p(x > 11)

Suppose i pick a jelly bean at random from a box containing one red and eleven blue ones. i record the color and put the jelly bean back in the box. if i do this three times, what is the probability of getting a blue jelly bean each time? (round your answer to three decimal places.)

(c) compare the results of parts (a) and (b). in general, how do you think the mode, median, and mean are affected when each data value in a set is multiplied by the same constant? multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean increasing by a factor of c. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean remaining the same. multiplying each data value by the same constant c results in the mode, median, and mean decreasing by a factor of c. there is no distinct pattern when each data value is multiplied by the same constant. (d) suppose you have information about average heights of a random sample of airline passengers. the mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 65 inches. to convert the data into centimeters, multiply each data value by 2.54. what are the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters? (enter your answers to two decimal places.) mode cm median cm mean cm in this problem, we explore the effect on the mean, median, and mode of multiplying each data value by the same number. consider the following data set 7, 7, 8, 11, 15. (a) compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = (b) multiply 3 to each of the data values. compute the mode, median, and mean. (enter your answers to one (1) decimal places.) mean value = median = mode = --
