(10 points) (#6.3.5a, page 191) Six healthy 3-year-old female Suffolk sheep were injected with the antibiotic Gentamicin, at a dosage of 10 mg/kg body weight. Their blood serum concentrations (ug/ml) of Gentamicin 1.5 hours after injection were as follows: 33 26 34 31 23 25 For these data the sample mean is 28.7 (ug/ml), the standard deviation is 4.6 (ug/ml), and the standard error of the sample mean is 1.9 (ug/ml). Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. (10 points) (# 6.2.2, page 182) An agronomist measured the heights of n corn plants. The mean height was 220 cm and the standard deviation was 15 cm. Calculate the standard error of the mean if n=25 n = 100 a. b. (#6.2.3, page 182) In evaluating a forage crop, it is important to measure the concentration of various constituents in the plant tissue. In a study of the reliability of such measurements, a batch of alfalfa was dried, ground, and passed through a fine screen. Five small (0.3 gm) aliquots of the alfalfa were then analyzed for their content of insoluble ash. The results (gm/kg) were as follows: 10.0 8.9 9.1 11.7 7.9 The sample mean and standard deviation of this data set are 9.520 (gm/kg) and 1.429 (gm/kg), respectively. Calculate the standard error of the mean for this data set. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
