A claimed trendof thinner Miss America winners has generated charges that the contest encourages unhealthy diet habits among young women. Listed below are body mass indexes (BMI) for recent Miss America winners. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that recent winners are from a population with a mean BMI less than 20.16, which was the BMI for winners from the 1920s and 1930s. Given that BMI is a measure of the relative amounts of body fat and height, do recent winners appear to be significantly smaller than those from 1920s and 1930s? 19.5 20.3 19.6 20.2 17.8 17.9 19.1 18.8 17.6 16.8

The median of a data set is the measure of center that is found by adding the data values and dividing the total by the number of data values that is the value that occurs with the greatest frequency that is the value midway between the maximum and minimum values in the original data set that is the middle value when the original data values are arranged in order of increasing (or decreasing) magnitude

Solve the following simultaneous equation by using an algebraic method (either substitution or elimination) 2x + 3y=-4 4x-y=11

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), the experimenter looks at cards that are hidden from the subject. each card contains either a star, a circle, a wave, a cross or a square.(five shapes) as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. when the esp study described above discovers a subject whose performance appears to be better than guessing, the study continues at greater length. the experimenter looks at many cards bearing one of five shapes (star, square, circle, wave, and cross) in an order determined by random numbers. the subject cannot see the experimenter as he looks at each card in turn, in order to avoid any possible nonverbal clues. the answers of a subject who does not have esp should be independent observations, each with probability 1/5 of success. we record 1000 attempts. which of the following assumptions must be met in order to solve this problem? it's reasonable to assume normality 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)%30 approximately normal 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)% 10 approximately normal srs it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 10,000 it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 1000
