In this problem, assume that the distribution of differences is approximately normal. Note: For degrees of freedom d.f. not in the Student's t table, use the closest d.f. that is smaller. In some situations, this choice of d.f. may increase the P-value by a small amount and therefore produce a slightly more "conservative" answer.At five weather stations on Trail Ridge Road in Rocky Mountain National Park, the peak wind gusts (in miles per hour) for January and April are recorded below.

(3-B is needed to answer it I am only asking for question 4.) 3) You go out and collect the following estimates of earthworms / acre:54,276 57,378 51,108 66,190 66,232 59,018 57,159These data yield the following: ̄y = 59,765.86, and s = 5,689.606a) Construct a 90% CI for these data.b) Construct a 99% CI for these data.c) Darwin once estimated that an acre of soil had about 50,000 worms in it. Is his estimateconsistent with the data above? (Historical note: His estimate was considered way too high inhis day). 4) Consider the results of 3(b). Notice that all the data fit within the 99% confidence interval. Is thisusually the case (in other words, will a 99% CI contain most of the observations)?Caution: a lot of people get this wrong! Here's a hint: suppose you had measured the worms in6000 acres (instead of just 7). What happens to the confidence interval? If you're not sure,substitute 6,000 for 7 in your calculation for (b) to see what happens.
