What is normal, when it comes to people's body temperature? a random sample of 130 human body temperatures, provided by allen sh

oemaker in the journal of statistical education, had a mean of 98.25◦ and a standard deviation of 0.73◦ . (a) does the data indicate that the average body temperature for healthy humans is different from 98.6◦ , the usual average temperature cited by physicians and others? test using α = 0.01. (b) what is the p-value?

The two-sided alternative hypothesis is appropriate in this case, the reason being we are asked "does the data indicate that the average body temperature for healthy humans is different from 98.6◦........?".
The test statistic is:
Z= \frac{\bar{X}-\mu}{ \frac{s}{ \sqrt{n} } }} =-5.47
Using an inverse normal table, and halving \alpha for a two-tailed test, we look up p=0.5-\alpha/2=0.5-0.005=0.495 and find the critical value to be Z = 2.5758.
Comparing the test statistic Z = -5.47 with the rejection region Z < -2.5758 and Z > 2.5758. we find the test statistic lies in the rejection region. Therefore the evidence does not indicate that the average body temperature for healthy humans is different from 98.6◦.

having trouble with this problem, pls help :/ I know the answer, just not how to get there. (ap calc ab, integrals)
pochemuha

Answer: D) 101

Step-by-step explanation:

By linearity, we can break it up into 2 integrals. The integral and derivative of f easily cancel out

\int\limits^{10}_{-1} {(2x+0.5f'(x))} \, dx =\int\limits^{10}_{-1} {2x} \, dx +0.5\int\limits^{10}_{-1} {f'(x)} \, dx =x^2|^{^{10}}_{_{-1}}+0.5f(x)|^{^{10}}_{_{-1}}\\=(100-1)+0.5(f(10)-f(-1))=99+0.5(8-4))=101

I used the table for values of f(x) at 10 and -1. Wouldn't be surprised if this was part of a series of questions about f because I really can't see how you could use the hypothesis that f is twice differentiable on R. Same for the other table values. I'm curious about how you found the answer. Was it a different way?
