Answer:

The standard deviation for the sample mean distribution=0.603

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean,\mu=63

Standard deviation,\sigma=4

n=44

We have to find the standard deviation for the sample mean distribution using  Central Limit Theorem for Means.

Standard deviation for the sample mean distribution

\sigma_x=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Using the formula

\sigma_x=\frac{4}{\sqrt{44}}

\sigma_x=\frac{4}{\sqrt{2\times 2\times 11}}

\sigma_x=\frac{4}{2\sqrt{11}}

\sigma_x=\frac{2}{\sqrt{11}}

\sigma_x=0.603

Hence, the standard deviation for the sample mean distribution=0.603

A researcher wishes to estimate the average blood alcohol concentration​ (BAC) for drivers involved in fatal accidents who are f
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

A 90% confidence interval for the mean BAC in fatal crashes in which the driver had a positive BAC is [0.143, 0.177] .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher randomly selects records from 60 such drivers in 2009 and determines the sample mean BAC to be 0.16 g/dL with a standard deviation of 0.080 ​g/dL.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

                               P.Q.  =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~   t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample mean BAC = 0.16 g/dL

            s = sample standard deviation = 0.080 ​g/dL

            n = sample of drivers = 60

            \mu = population mean BAC in fatal crashes

<em>Here for constructing a 90% confidence interval we have used a One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation. </em>

So, a 90% confidence interval for the population mean, \mu is;

P(-1.672 < t_5_9 < 1.672) = 0.90  {As the critical value of t at 59 degrees of

                                              freedom are -1.672 & 1.672 with P = 5%}    P(-1.672 < \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } < 1.672) = 0.90

P( -1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } < {\bar X-\mu} < 1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } ) = 0.90

P( \bar X-1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } < \mu < \bar X+1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } ) = 0.90

<u>90% confidence interval for</u> \mu = [ \bar X-1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } , \bar X+1.672 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } } ]

                                       = [ 0.16-1.672 \times {\frac{0.08}{\sqrt{60} } } , 0.16+1.672 \times {\frac{0.08}{\sqrt{60} } } ]

                                       = [0.143, 0.177]

Therefore, a 90% confidence interval for the mean BAC in fatal crashes in which the driver had a positive BAC is [0.143, 0.177] .
