A random sample of 10 pickup trucks in your fleet
shows that trucks are driven an average of 23,500 miles per year
with a standard deviation of 3,900 miles.
a. Construct the 99 percent confidence interval for the average
number of miles per year a truck in your fleet is driven.
b. What can you assert with 99 percent confidence about the
possible size of your error if you estimate the distance driven to
be 23,500 miles per year?

9.5 A random sample of 100 automobile owners in the state of Virginia shows that an automobile is driven on average 23,500 kilometers per year with a standard de- viation of 3900 kilometers. Assume the distribution of measurements to be approximately normal. (a) Construct a 99% confidence interval for the aver- age number of kilometers an automobile is driven annually in Virginia. • (b) What can we assert with 99% confidence about the possible size of our error if we...
1 Assume that a company operates a fleet of delivery trucks. If a truck is driven 80,000 miles during a year its average operating cost is 25 cents per mile If a truck is driven only 60,000 miles during the year, its average operating cost is 30 cents per mie. Using the high-low method, what would be the total estimated operating cost of a truck is driven 72,400 miles per year? Murple Choice O SC340 $1640 $40 O $19.840 50...
