Q1) Random sample of 49  pepper seeds was planted.  Length of time between planting and gemination was measured.  The mean time until germination was 10.4 days with a standard deviation of 2.13 days.  When constructing a 95% confidence interval for the true length of time for all pepper seeds to germinate you must calculate the margin of error.  The margin of error in this case is 0.60.

i) True

ii) False

 

With the information above calculate the  critical value.

 

Q2) Using information from # 1 and # 2, create confidence interval of 95% for true length of time for all pepper seeds to germinate.

 

a) 21.27 < = mean < = 24.93

 

b) 9.70 < = mean < = 11.00

 

c) 3.13 < = mean < = 3.23

d) None of the above.
