Suppose the number of inches of rainfall each year in a city is normally distributed. For...
The weights, in pounds, of the cats in an animal adoption center are normally distributed. If a random sample of cats is taken and the confidence interval is (7.9,12.7), what is the margin of error? Give just a number for your answer. For example, if you found that the margin of error was 2, you would enter 2. Provide your answer below:
Suppose that the wait times for patients in an emergency room are normally distributed with an unknown mean and standard deviation. A random sample of 18 patients is taken and gives a sample mean of 25 minutes and a sample standard deviation of 2 minutes. As found above, the EBM, margin of error, for a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is 0.99. Find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using...
The heights of American men are normally distributed. If a random sample of American men is taken and the confidence interval is (65.3,73.7), what is the sample mean x¯? Give just a number for your answer. For example, if you found that the sample mean was 12, you would enter 12.

The number of cars sold annually by used car salespeople is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 14. A random sample of 430 salespeople was taken and the mean number of cars sold annually was found to be 78. Find the 97% confidence interval estimate of the population mean. Note: For each confidence interval, enter your answer in the form (LCL, UCL). You must include the parentheses and the comma between the confidence limits. Confidence Interval =
Suppose a random sample of size 17 was taken from a normally distributed population, and the sample standard deviation was calculated to be s = 5.0. a) Calculate the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. Round your response to at least 3 decimal places. b) Calculate the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Round your response to at least 3 decimal places.
Suppose the speeds of vehicles traveling on a highway are normally distributed and have a known population standard deviation of 7 miles per hour and an unknown population mean. A random sample of 32 vehicles is taken and gives a sample mean of 64 miles per hour Find the margin of error for the confidence interval for the population mean with a 98% confidence level Z005 Z0.025 Z0.0 Z0.005 0.10 1.282 1.645 1.960 2.326 2.576 You may use a calculator...
