As confidence interval not specified, we assume it for 95%
n = 14
mean = 33.2
t-value of 95% CI = 2.1604
std. dev. = 8.3000
SE = std.dev./sqrt(n)
= 8.3/sqrt(14)
= 2.21827
ME = t*SE
= 2.1604*2.21827
= 4.79228
Lower Limit = Mean - ME = 33.2 - 4.79228 = 28.40772
Upper Limit = Mean + ME = 33.2 + 4.79228 = 37.99228
95% CI (28.4077 , 37.9923)
A sample of 14 randomly selected commuters in Chicago showed the average of the commuting times...
A study of commuting times reports the travel times to work of a random sample of 1066 employed adults in Chicago. The mean is x = 54.0 minutes and the standard deviation is s = 55.9 minutes. What is the standard error of the mean? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) ________________ min
We intend to estimate the average driving time of Chicago commuters. From a previous study, we believe that the average time is 42 minutes with a standard deviation (o) of 6 minutes. our 99 percent confidence interval to have a margin of error of no more than plus or minus 2 minutes. What is the smallest sample size that we should consider? We want O 120 O 12 60 08
The average of 65 randomly selected compact automobiles was 2728 pounds. The sample standard deviation was 350 pounds. Find the 99% confidence interval of the true mean weight of the automobiles.
The heart rates (in beats per minute) of 41 randomly selected finishers of the Chicago Marathon, five minutes after they completed the race, had sample mean x = 132 and sample variance s2 = 105. Assuming that the heart rates of all finishers of the Chicago Marathon five minutes after completing the race are normally distributed, obtain a 95% confidence interval for their mean.
A survey of 170 commuters shows that on average people travel 17.4 km with standard deviation 8.4 km. Find 99% confidence interval for the population mean commuting distance. State your conclusion. Show work

The following confidence interval is obtained for a population proportion, p: 0.273 < p < 0.592. Use these confidence interval limits to find the sample proportion . Round your answer to three decimal places. 0.433 3. Find the minimum sample size : How many commuters must be randomly selected to estimate the mean driving time μ of Chicago commuters?...
a)A sample of 30 patients in a doctor's office showed that they had to wait for an average of 33 minutes before they could see the doctor. The sample standard deviation is 14 minutes. Assume the population of waiting times is normally distributed.At 90% confidence, compute the lower bound of interval estimate for the average waiting time of all the patients who visit this doctor. b)A university planner wants to determine the proportion of spring semester students who will attend...
Questions 12-14 are related to the following: Assume the student commuting time to the IUPUI campus is normally distributed. To build a 95% confidence interval for the mean commuting time for all IUPUI students, a random sample of n = 5 students provided the following times (shown in minutes). x 15 12 18 25 30 12 The variance of the mean x̅ is a 54.5 b 45.6 c 10.9 d 8.7 13 The margin or error for a 95% interval...
