The standard deviation for thesample was 10 minutes. Answer the questions below to construct a 90% confidenceinterval about the population mean, u. Assume that student commute times are nor-mally distributed.

The distance a basketball player runs during a game is one of the many variables used for assessing the performance of the players. 72 players are followed for a game each and the average distance ran by them is found to be 3453 meters (m) with a standard deviation of 121 m. Then the lower limit for the 95% confidence interval for the true mean is ( Blank 1). Calculate the answer by read surrounding text. and the upper limit is ( Blank 2). Calculate the answer by read surrounding text.

An SRS of 100 postal employees found that the average time these employees had worked for the postal service was x = 7 years with standard deviation s = 2 years. Assume the distribution of the time the population of employees have worked for the postal service is approximately Normal. A 95% confidence interval for the mean time u the population of postal service employees have spent with the postal service is 7 + 0.525 7 + 0.4 7 + 2 7 + 1.984 b
The level of dissolved oxygen in a river indicates the water’s ability to support aquatic life. A research project is started to determine if the oxygen levels in the river have changed. A study done 10 years prior, showed that the mean oxygen levels in milligrams per liter for the river was 4.3. A.) Write appropriate hypotheses for this test B.) Water is collected samples from 15 randomly chosen locations along the river and measured the dissolved oxygen. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean dissolved oxygen level for this stream. The results are in milligrams per liter: 4.53 5.5 4.01 5.04 4.83 4.66 3.29 4.4 2.87 5.23 5.42 5.73 4.13 6.38 5.55 C.) Based on the sample from part B, conduct a significance test of these results using a 5% significance level. Give complete results of the test including a p-value and what the results means.
