Chapter 10: Q.10.129 (page 443)

Zea Mays. Refer to Exercise 10.123.
a. Determine a $95 %$ confidence interval for the difference between the mean heights of cross-fertilized and self-fertilized Zea mays.
b. Repeat part (a) for a $99 %$ confidence level.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a). $(0.0303, 41.8297)$ is the $95 %$ confidence interval for the data

b). $(- 8.0776, 49.9376)$ is the $99 %$ confidence interval for the data.

Step by step solution

Part (a) Step 1: Given Information

The values are $\overset{炉}{d} = 20.93, s_{d} = 37.74$ , the level of significance is $0.05$ , the data is shown below.

$49$	$- 67$	$8$	$16$	$6$
$23$	$28$	$41$	$14$	$29$
$56$	$24$	$75$	$60$	$- 48$

Part (a) Step 2: Explanation

The degree of freedom is,

$dof = n - 1$

$= 15 - 1$

$= 14$

The level of significant crucial value is $卤 2.145$ .

Therefore, we can compute the confidence level as follow:

$C I = \overset{炉}{d} 卤 t \frac{a}{2} \frac{s_{d}}{\sqrt{n}}$

$= 20.93 卤 (2.145) \frac{37.74}{\sqrt{15}}$

$= (0.0303, 41.8297)$

Part (b) Step 1: Given Information

The values are $\overset{炉}{d} = 20.93, s_{d} = 37.74$ ,

the significance level is $0.05$ , the data is shown as follow.

$49$	$- 67$	$8$	$16$	$6$
$23$	$28$	$41$	$14$	$29$
$56$	$24$	$75$	$60$	$- 48$

Part (b) Step 2: Explanation

Let's compute the degree of freedom:

$dof = n - 1$

$= 15 - 1$

$= 14$

The level of significant crucial value is $卤 2.977$ .

Therefore, we can compute the confidence level as follow,

$C I = \overset{炉}{d} 卤 t_{\frac{a}{2}} \frac{s_{d}}{\sqrt{n}}$

$= 20.93 卤 (2.977) \frac{37.74}{\sqrt{15}}$

$= (- 8.0776, 49.9376)$
