Six football players, all defensive linemen, decide that they will gain an average of 10 pounds over the summer. At the start of the season, only five showed up for the weighin. They had gained 9, 13, 11, 6, and 7 pounds. How many pounds does the last person have to gain in order that the group can attain its goal? 12 pounds 14 pounds 13 pounds 14.5 points The heights of 10 randomly selected fourth grade boys are (in inches) are 53, 53, 54, 56, 56, 56, 50, 57, 59, and 56. Find the sample standard deviations to 2 decimal places. 2.67 2.54 3.54 2.56 Salesmen for the ABC Plastics Company drive an average of 240 miles per day with a standard deviation of 36 miles. If samples of 25 daily mileages are taken, what is the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means? 6.8 7.0 7.1 7.2 In 2003, the U.S. death rate was 1.2 per 100,000 people due to motorcycle accidents. Motorcycles in the U.S. were involved in fatal crashes at the rate of 35.0 per 100 million miles driven.

Determine the conclusion of the hypothesis test assuming that the results of the sampling lead to rejection of the null hypothesis. Conclusion: Support the claim that the mean is greater than 24 ounces. Conclusion: Support the claim that the mean is not equal to 24 ounces. Conclusion: Support the claim that the mean is equal to 24 ounces. Conclusion: Support the claim that the mean is less than 24 ounces. A 95% confidence interval for the mean of a normal population is found to be 17.6 < < 23.6. What is the margin of error? 2 2.7 3 4
