Describe the steps that one would take to estimate the percentage of women with blood pressures in an age group.
In a well-written paper, relate your professional or personal experience in the business world to the readings for the week. Sometimes students have difficulty identifying a personal or professional torts case. You may also research a torts case to discuss if you do not have a personal or professional experience to discuss. Be sure to complete all bulleted points above.In the area of torts we see many causes of action that are comprised of “elements.”
August 7, 2017Since careful records have begun being kept in January, Eric’s small business has delivered the following quantities of flowers throughout the town. January Feb March April May June July August Small Bouquets 85 34 26 24 43 29 30 19 Large Bouquets 23 64 27 18 33 23 20 13 Assuming the data is normally distributed, construct two separate 90% confidence intervals, one for the number of deliveries of small bouquets in September and one for the large bouquets in September.

This is a three-part assignment related to a study of contraceptive drug use among women. Following is a distribution of systolic blood pressures cross tabulated by age and pill use for women.

First, state whether blood pressure in Table 2A would be a continuous variable or a discrete variable. Explain. Then supposing that the number of women in each of groups (non-users and users) were identified, would the number of women in each category be a continuous variable or a discrete variable? Explain.
Part 2: Use any free online histogram maker* to draw Histograms for the blood pressures of the users and nonusers ages 35 – 44. Discuss one conclusion that can be made about blood pressure and pill use. *Here are some free resources:

Part 3: Based on what you’ve learned in this module about normal distributions, explain why a normal approximation of data would be helpful to view the data. For example, you could describe the steps that one would take to estimate the percentage of women with blood pressures in an age group.
