8. You are thinking about buying a motel located on Interstate 64. Before you make up
your mind, you want to estimate the average number of vehicles that go by the motel
cach day in the summer. Fortunately, the highway department has been counting
vehicles on I-64 near the motel. A random sample of 36 summer days shows an average
of x= 16,000 cars per day with s = 2400 cars. Find a 90% confidence interval for the
mean number of cars per summer day going past the motel. Interpret your results in
context.
9. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported a survey of randomly
selected Americans age 65 and older, which found that 411 of 1012 men and 535 of 1062
women suffered from some form of arthritis. Create a 95% confidence interval for the
difference in the proportions of senior men and women who have the disease.
