7. The measurements of the drying time, in hours, of a certain brand of latex paint follow
a normal distribution. Supposc 20 mcasurements of the drying timcs are rccorded. The
sample mcan and the standard deviation of 20 measurements is 3.77 and 0.946, respec-
tively.
(a) Construct a 90% confidence interval for the true mean measurements of the dryìng
times. Assume that the distribution of the mcasurements of the drying times is
approximately normal.
(b) Find the 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation of mcasurements of the
drying times.
