Serum ferritin is used in diagnosing iron deficiency. In a study conducted recently researchers discovered that in a sample of 28 elderly men the sample standard deviation of serum ferritin was 52.6 mg/L. For 26 younger men the sample standard deviation was 84.2 mg/L. At the .01 level of significance, do these data support the conclusion that the ferritin distribution in elderly men has a smaller variance than in younger men?

In an article appearing in 
Today’s Health a writer states that the average number of calories in a serving of popcorn is 75. To determine if the average number of calories in a serving of popcorn is different from 75, a nutritionist selected a random sample of 20 servings of popcorn and computed the sample mean number of calories per serving to be 78 with a sample standard deviation of 7.

Compute the z or t value of the sample test statistic.

Question 16 of 23

Accepted characters: numbers, decimal point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as thousands separator, 5 000), “E” or “e” (used in scientific notation). 
NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. 

Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where “a” and “b” need to have explicitly stated values. 

For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not.
