4. When should the t distribution be used to find a
confidence interval for the mean?

For Exercises 5 through 20, assume that all variables are
approximately normally distributed.
5. High Temperatures for May The predicted high
temperatures for a day in late May for a random sample
of U.S. cities are listed here. Estimate the mean
population high temperature with 90% confidence.

6. Digital Camera Prices The prices (in dollars) for a
particular model of digital camera with 6.0 megapixels
and an optical 3X zoom lens are shown here for 10
randomly selected online retailers. Estimate the true
mean price for this particular model with 95%
confidence.

7. Women Representatives in State Legislature A state
representative wishes to estimate the mean number of
women representatives per state legislature. A random
sample of 17 states is selected, and the number of
women representatives is shown. Based on the sample,
what is the point estimate of the mean? Find the 90%
confidence interval of the mean population. (Note:
e population mean is actually 31.72, or about 32.)
