The manager of the Inlet Square Mall, near Ft. Myers, Florida, wants to estimate the mean amount spent per shopping visit by customers. A sample of 20 customers had a sample mean of $49.35 and a sample standard deviation of $9.01. Find the 95% confidence interval for the population mean.
Confidence interval, CI = Z*
= $49.35
s = $9.01
n = 20
For 95% confidence level, Z* = 1.96
Confidence interval = 49.35 1.96x
= 49.35 3.95
= (45.40, 53.30)

A store manager wants to estimate the mean number of customers to survey to know their satisfaction level about their shopping experience. The estimated margin of error is desired to be 1 with a 95% level of confidence. A pilot study provided a standard deviation of 2. How many customers should be sampled?
A chain restaurant wants to estimate the population mean weight of one of their entrees. A random sample size n = 36 showed sample mean = 18 ounces with sample standard deviation s = 1.8 ounces. Create a confidence interval at 95% confidence for the population mean μ.
If the manager of a bottled water distributor wants to estimate, with 95% confidence, the mean amount of water in a 1-gallon bottle to within ± 0.004 gallons and also assumes that the standard deviation is 0.04 gallons, what sample size is needed?

Cholesterol Contents of Cheese A cheese processing company wants to estimate the mean cholesterol content of all one-ounce servings of a type of cheese. The estimate must be within 0.75 milligram of the population mean. (a) Determine the minimum sample size required to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. Assume the population standard deviation is 3.10 milligrams. (b) The sample mean is 29 milligrams. Using the minimum sample size with a 95% level of confidence, does it...
