... (a) Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of NOX emitted by light-duty engines of this type. (b) The environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets a limit of 1.0 gram/mile for NOX emissions. Are you convinced that this type of engine has a mean NOX level of 1.0 or less? ...

... 8. The upper one-sided 95% confidence bound an the mean of a normal distribution will always be greater than the upper bound on the mean from a two-sided 95% confidence interval. True False False – the lower bound is always less than the two-sided upper confidence limit, assuming equal confidence. 9 ...

1.3.1 Measuring Center: The Mean Mean
... mean travel time is higher, 22.5 minutes. The mean is pulled toward the right tail of this right-skewed distribution. The median, unlike the mean, is resistant. If the longest travel time were 600 minutes rather than 60 minutes, the mean would increase to more than 58 minutes but the median would ...

Introduction to Estimation
... sample mean, for the same sample size. Hence, X̄ is a more efficient estimator than sample median. Example 2: Consider the following estimator. First, a random portion of a sample is discarded from an original sample; then, the mean of the retained values in the sample is taken as an estimate for µ. ...

... ECC students in the 2008 presidential election. Since we don't have any information from either population, we would need to take samples from each. This isn't an example of a hypothesis test from Section 10.4, about one proportion, it'd be comparing two proportions, so we need some new background. ...

The sample mean will not be exactly equal to the population mean. The theoretical distribution called the sampling distribution gives us the spread ...
