The weights of four randomly and independently selected bags of tomatoes labeled 5.0 pounds were found to be 5.4, 5.0, 5.3, and 5.5 pounds. Assume Normality. Answer parts (a) and (b) below.
a. Find the 95% confidence interval for the mean weight of all bags of tomatoes. (____ , ____)
b. Can you reject the population mean of 5 pounds?
sample mean, xbar = 5.3
sample standard deviation, s = 0.216
sample size, n = 4
degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 3
Given CI level is 95%, hence α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05
α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025, tc = t(α/2, df) = 3.182
CI = (xbar - tc * s/sqrt(n) , xbar + tc * s/sqrt(n))
CI = (5.3 - 3.182 * 0.216/sqrt(4) , 5.3 + 3.182 *
0.216/sqrt(4))
CI = (4.96 , 5.64)
b)
can not reject the population mean of 5 pounds

A study of women’s weights found that a randomly selected sample of 150 women had a mean weight of 147.3 lb. Assuming that the population standard deviation is 19.6 lb., construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean weight of all women. Choose the correct interval from below: Choose one • 10 points (144.211, 150.389) (140.611, 146.789) (144.667, 149.933) (144.163, 150.437)
