Ecologists wanted to estimate the mean biomass (amount of vegetation) of a certain forested region. The ecologists divided the region into plots measuring 1 square meter each, and they selected a random sample of 9 plots. The mean biomass of the 9 plots was 4.3 kilograms per square meter (kg/m2) and the standard deviation was 1.5 kg/m2 . Assuming all conditions for inference are met, which of the following is a 95 percent confidence interval for the population mean biomass, in kg/m2?
A) 4.3±1.96 (underroot 1.5/3).
B) 4.3±1.96 (1.5/3).
C) 4.3 ± 2.306 (underroot 1.5/9).
D) 4.3±2.3064 (1.5/9).
E) 4.3+2.30/15 (1.5/3).

Answer:

[tex]4.3 \pm 2.306\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}[/tex], option c

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 9 - 1 = 8

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 8 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.306

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.306\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

Confidence interval:

The confidence interval is the sample mean plus/minus the margin of error. So

[tex]4.3 \pm 2.306\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{9}}[/tex]

The correct answer is given by option c.

A​ new, simple test has been developed to detect a particular type of cancer. The test must be evaluated before it is put into use. A medical researcher selects a random sample of 1000 adults and finds​ (by other​ means) that ​3% have this type of cancer. Each of the 1000 adults is given the​ test, and it is found that the test indicates cancer in 99​% of those who have it and in ​2% of those who do not. Based on these​ results, what is the probability of a randomly chosen person having cancer given that the test indicates​ cancer? Of a person having cancer given that the test does not indicate​ cancer?

A farmer knows that a grocery store will reject a shipment of his vegetables if more than 4% of the vegetables contain blemishes. He inspects a large truckload of tomatoes to determine if the proportion with blemishes (p) exceeds 0.04. He selects an SRS of 150 tomatoes from the more than 2,000 tomatoes in the truck. Suppose that 8 tomatoes sampled are found to have blemishes. Which of the assumptions for inference about a proportion is violated, if any?

a. Large Counts: np > 10
b. Large Counts: n(1 – p) > 10
c. The sample is a random sample of the entire population.
d. 10% condition: the sample size is less than 10% of the population.
e. There do not appear to be any violations.
