Farm and Stat

学んだこと。
中学生(15歳)の男の子40人とゲームをすることは、まだまだ修行が必要。でも、たかひろ君に、何になりたいの?という質問から始まり。。。
「英語が学びたい。」
「へーなんで?」
「日本はつぶれるから。」
。。。って、おい、そんな心構えでいいのか??と、アメリカに住んでる私が言うのも何だけど、そう思った。大丈夫かいな?!
Stat 221. I am learning Confidence interval, looking for some areas of the possible answers. But, how to make statement, and answer are very stratified and tricky.
First, you start from
a question (state the problem): Researchers plan to examine 26 breast-fed infants and estimate the mean hemoglobin level of all breast fed infants. Assume that the population standard deviation is 1.6 gram/100ml and the population is normally distributed.
Formulate: Obtain a 95% confidence interval estimate for the mean hemoglobin level of all breast fed infants.
Solve: Collect data. mean ± m. m= the margin of error. Z*x σ/rute n.
Conclude: We are 95% confidence that the interval (12.28, 13.52) contains the mean hemoglobin (in grams/100ml) for all breast-fed babies.
