Question Suppose the lengths of time taken to complete one section of a standardized test are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. A random sample of 38 test takers is taken and results in a sample mean of 44 minutes and sample standard deviation of 10 minutes. The margin of error, for a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is 3.29. Find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's 1-distribution. • Round the final answers to two decimal places. Provide your answer below: We are 95% confident that the true population mean lies between and

The distribution of study times for first-year students follow a Normal distribution with a standard deviation σ = 48 minutes. Suppose a sample of 344 students found that the mean study time for these students was x¯= 170 minutes per week. Use this to find a 94.38% confidence interval to estimate the mean study time for all students. We are 94.38% confident that the mean study time for first-year students is between the following ( answer) minutes and ( answer) minutes. The answer needs to be the mean study time for first-year students is between what amount of minutes and the following minutes.
