A sociologist conducted a study at a local grocery store to determine how much money shoppers spent on average. She sampled 27 shoppers and calculated the mean amount of money spent to be $95.5 with a standard deviation of $15.39. (5 points) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of money spent at the grocery store. (2 points) Three months prior to this study, the manager of the grocery store started an advertising campaign with the goal of...

A random sample of 36 individuals were selected from the batch of products to estimate a feature of interest. Suppose that the sample mean is 125 and the standard deviation for this batch is assumed to be 24. a) construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean value for this feature of the batch. b) if we want to make the sampling error +/- 7, how many more individuals should be selected to achieve a confidence level 95%? c) based...

In examining the credit accounts of a department store, an auditor would like to estimate the true mean account error (book value – audited value). To do so, the auditor selected a random sample of 50 accounts and found the mean account error to be $60 with a standard deviation of $30. a. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean account error. What conclusion can be made from this confidence interval? b. How large a sample is actually...
