A pharmaceutical company makes tranquilizers. It is assumed that the distribution for the length of time they last is approximately normal. Researchers in a hospital used the drug on a random sample of 9 patients. The effective period of the tranquilizer for each patient (in hours) was as follows: 2.7; 2.8; 3.0; 2.3; 2.3; 2.2; 2.8; 2.1; and 2.4. NOTE: If you are using a Student's t-distribution, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must first prove that assumption, though.) O Part (a) O Part (b) O Part (c) O Part (d) O Part (e) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean length of time. (i) State the confidence interval. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) (ii) Sketch the graph. a a C.L. =0 (i) Calculate the error bound. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.
