In order to estimate attendance at a music festival, management counts the number of people entering the admissions gate in a 30- minute sample time. Management assumes that there is a steady stream of people entering the festival for the 10 hours that the admissions gate is open. At a particular music festival, 2,250 people were counted entering the gate in a 30- minute sample time. What was the estimated attendance at this festival?

Suppose that a local band is looking to increase its social media presence. The band's manager hopes to attract new fans by having current fans share the band's updates and videos on Facebook, and he wants to estimate the average number of Facebook friends that fans of the band have. To do this, he selects a random sample of n = 10 fans from the band's Facebook page and records how many friends they have. The rounded friend counts for these 10 fans are represented in the stem and leaf plot, where the stems represents the hundreds and the leaves represent the tens. 1 5 2 3 4 5 6 4 7 9 σ со соди 4 3 3 9 5 8 6 Leaf Unit = 10 Using his raw data, he calculates a sample mean of x = 405.0 and a sample standard deviation of s = 189.3. Additionally, suppose that Facebook has reported that the standard deviation for the number of Facebook friends for all users is 203.4. The band's manager plans to use this information to construct a 95% z-confidence interval for the mean friend count for fans of…
