5) al The owner of a car dealership wanted to determine the average distance a person drives a car per year. He obtains a random sample of 72 cars and finds the average distance to be 14,362 miles with a standard deviation of 1,359 miles. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean distance driven per year. Interpret your result. b) If in the above scenario, a claim is made that the average distance driven is 15,000 miles. Would this claim be valid or invalid, based on the results in part (a)?

4. Dougall compared the resting heart rate of average healthy citizens and soldiers suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The normal resting heart rate for 25 healthy people averages 65 beats per minute (bpm) with a standard deviation of 6 bpm. The average heart rate of 16 people suffering from PTSD was 82 bpm with a standard deviation of 8 bpm. Use a = .05 for a two-tailed test. Does PTSD cause an elevation in resting heart rate? Complete all 4 steps of hypothesis testing.
