During a wisdom teeth removal procedure, 1, 2, 3, or 4 wisdom teeth are removed, depending on the patient's needs. Records indicate that nationwide, the mean number of wisdom teeth removed in a procedure is µ = 2.38, with a standard deviation of o = 0.93. Suppose that we will take a random sample of 8 wisdom teeth removal procedures and record the number of wisdom teeth removed in each procedure. Let x represent the sample mean of the 8 procedures. Consider the sampling distribution of the sample mean x. Complete the following. Do not round any intermediate computations. Write your answers with two decimal places, rounding if needed. (a) Find - (the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample mean). -0 ? (b) Find o, (the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean). G- - ?

Total plasma volume is important in determining the required plasma component in blood replacement therapy for a person undergoing surgery. Plasma volume is influenced by the overall health and physical activity of an individual. Suppose that a random sample of 44 male firefighters are tested and that they have a plasma volume sample mean of x = 37.5 ml/kg (milliliters plasma per kilogram body weight). Assume that ? = 7.50 ml/kg for the distribution of blood plasma. When finding an 99% confidence interval, what is the critical value for confidence level? (Give your answer to two decimal places.) zc = (a) Find a 99% confidence interval for the population mean blood plasma volume in male firefighters. What is the margin of error?
