Question

Suppose that the amount of beer in a can of Treehouse beer is normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 0.5 ounces. To estimate the mean amount in all cans a sample of 18 cans is selected and the sample mean is computed as 16.1 ounces. Give a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of beer in a can of Treehouse beer. (Round to two decimal places.)

Confidence Interval:

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
