A population is distributed with a known standard deviation, σ = 18 units. A random sample of size 35 is obtained from this population. The mean of this sample is 70. True or False: Since the sample size is greater than 25 the distribution of sample means from this population should be approximately normally distributed. What is the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for the population mean μ? (2 dp) What is the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval for the population mean μ? (2 dp). Based on your confidence interval, would you believe that the true mean of this population could be 75?

The marginal error for confidence intervals concerning μ doesn't depend on the sample size. However, it depends on the critical value t*, as well as the standard deviation of the observed sample. Is this true or false? And why?
company that makes cola drinks states that the mean caffeine content per 12-ounce bottle of cola is 55 milligrams. You want to test this claim. During your tests, you find that a random sample of thirty 12-ounce bottles of cola has a mean caffeine content of 52.5 milligrams. Assume the population is normally distributed and the population standard deviation is 6.9 milligrams. At α=0.10, can you reject the company's claim?
