Bones Brothers & Associates prepare individual tax returns. Over prior years, Bones Brothers has maintained careful records regarding the time to prepare a return. The mean time to prepare a return is 90 minutes and the population standard deviation of this distribution is 14 minutes. Suppose 100 returns from this year are selected and analyzed regarding the preparation time. What assumptions do you need to make about the shape of the population distribution of all possible tax preparation times to make inferences about the mean time to complete a tax form? Select one: a.The population distribution is skewed to the left. b.The shape of the population distribution does not matter c.The population distribution is normal. d. The answer varies according to the size of the standard deviation of the mean. e. The population distribution is skewed to the right.

A developmental psychologist is interested in studying how long babies gaze at a photograph of a human face. To test this question, she shows a picture to a sample of six babies and records the length of their gaze in seconds. The data are as follows: 12, 17, 18, 20, 20, 29. Calculate the mean, median, mode, range, variance and standard deviation for the sample.
