With economical concerns being so great, many people are no longer purchasing new vehicles, but are instead keeping their vehicles for a longer period of time, until they no longer work. The American Automobile Association is interested in determining if the average age of vehicles for Americans is different than six years. A random sample of 35 Americans was obtained. The aver- age age of their vehicles was 6.2 years with standard deviation 1.2. a. Set up the null and alternative hypothesis: b. At the 1% significance level, use a CI to determine if the average age of yehicles for Americans

9) A newspaper article about the results of a poll states: "In theory, the results of such a poll, in 99 cases out of 100 should differ by no more than 5 percentage points in either direction from what would have been obtained by interviewing all voters in the United States." Find 9) the sample size suggested by this statement. a. Shade and label the missing parts in graph for a 99% confidence interval. (You may use Excel or a calculator to find the z-score.
