Marine biologists have been studying the effects of acidification of the oceans on weights of male baluga whales in the Arctic O

cean. One of the studies involves a random sample of 16 baluga whales. The researchers want to create a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true mean weight of male baluga whales. Their data follow a normal distribution. The population standard deviation of weights of male baluga whales is ????=125 kg, and the researchers feel comfortable using this standard deviation for their confidence interval.
Assuming the relevant requirements are met, calculate the margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.
a. 15.31 kg
b. 51.40 kg
c. 61.25 kg
d. 80.49 kg

Answer:

c. 61.25 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.

a. 15.31 kg

b. 51.40 kg

c. 61.25 kg

d. 80.49 kg

Margin of Error Formula= z × Standard deviation/√n

95% confidence interval = 1.96

Standard deviation = 125kg

n = 16 samples

Margin of error= 1.96 × 125/√16

= 1.96 × 125/4

= 245/4

= 61.25kg

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean is 61.25kg

A manufacturing process is designed to produce bolts with a 0.25-in. diameter. Once each day, a random sample of 36 bolts is sel
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

0.6170

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a manufacturing process is designed to produce bolts with a 0.25-in. diameter.

i.e. no of bolts which are produced as per standard is X means then

X is normal with mean = 0.250 and std dev = 0.04

No of bolts tested = 36

If this mean falls outside the interval (0.230,0.270) the production would be shut down.

i.e. P(|x-25|>0.20) =production shut down probability

P(|x-25|>0.20)\\=P(|Z|>0.5)\\=2(0.5-0.1915)\\= 0.6170
