Q. The heights of ten mails of a given locality are found to be 70,67,62,68,61,68,70,64,64,66 70, 67, 62, 68, 61, 68, 70, 64, 64, 66 (inches). Is it reasonable to believe that the average height is 6464 inches. Test at 5% 5 \% significant level assuming that for 99 degrees of freedom is 11.833833.
  1. Calculate Mean: First, we need to calculate the sample mean (average height) of the given data.\newlineThe heights are: 7070, 6767, 6.56.5, 6868, 6161, 6868, 7070, 6464, 6464, 6666 inches.\newlineLet's add these up and divide by the number of data points (676700) to find the mean.\newlineCalculation: 676711
  2. Correct Transcription Error: There seems to be a mistake in the transcription of the heights. The height 6(12)6\left(\frac{1}{2}\right) should be 61.561.5 instead of 6.56.5. Let's correct this and recalculate the mean.\newlineCorrected calculation: 70+67+61.5+68+61+68+70+64+64+6610\frac{70 + 67 + 61.5 + 68 + 61 + 68 + 70 + 64 + 64 + 66}{10}
