A publisher wants to estimate the mean length of time (in minutes) all adults spend reading newspapers. To determine this estimate, the publisher takes a random sample of 15 people and obtains the results below. From past studies, the publisher assumes σ is 2.3 minutes and that the population of times is normally distributed.Sample data: 11, 10, 7, 10, 12, 12, 6, 9, 12, 8, 7, 11, 11, 6, 6Construct the 90% and 99% confidence intervals for the population mean. Which interval is wider? If convenient, use technology to construct the confidence intervals.The 90% confidence interval is [ , ]. (Round to one decimal place as needed.)Enter your answer in the edit fields and then click Check Answer.

Workers' Distractions. A recent study showed that the modern working person experiences an average of 2.1 hours per day of distractions (phone calls, e- mails, impromptu visits, etc.). A random sample of 16 workers for a large corporation found that these workers were distracted an average of 1.8 hours per day and the standard deviation was 20 minutes. Estimate the true mean population distraction time with 90% confidence, and compare your answer to the results of the study. (1.654,1.946). Mean of the study is outside or "different" from the result of our study.
