  Suppose the amount of propane used per customer in a month is normally distributed with . Find a 95 confidence interval for if a randomly chosen sample of 30 customers has a mean propane usage of 110 gallons a month.
 

  a.(78.6, 141.4)
  b.(105.2, 114.8)
  c.(103.2, 116.8)
  d.(104.3, 115.7)

Question 2


  Which of the following is not a correct statement with regards to estimating a mean using a known ?
 

  a.If the sampling distribution for sample means has a mean equal to and a standard error equal to and the randomly sampled population is normally distributed, then the sampling distribution of has a normal distribution.
  b.The sampling distribution of is normally distributed only if the sampled population is normally distributed.
  c.A necessary assumption for estimating a mean using a known is that the sampling distribution of is normally distributed.
  d.If the sampling distribution for sample means has a mean equal to and a standard error equal to and the randomly sampled population is not normally distributed, then the sampling distribution of is approximately normally distributed only for sufficiently large sample sizes.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
