A standard error is another term for the estimated standard deviation of the population. b. If you go out about two standard errors on either side of 0, you can be about 95% confident that the unknown population parameter will be in the resulting interval. c.

- No Pain Corp Omar Amman, the CEO of No Pain Corp (NPC), is under stress. They produce transcutaneus electrical nerve simulation units (TENS) for pain control. Amman faces a new opportunity and is not sure how to go about it. Recently, the the Department of Health of Canada has approved low current TENS devices to be sold directly to consumers without a doctor’s note. This will come into effect in three months. In the past, one needed a doctor’s note and could rent the device from some companies. These TENS machines, as they are called in Canada, are popular, since the older population has found them to be effective in pain control with almost no side effects. Amman can sell the device via drug-stores and pharmacies as well as on Amazon. But, Amman is not sure. Amman used to work as a supply chain manager for a power-tool company. Back then, it was a huge logistical “pain,” no pun intended, to work with large retailers and to attend to their fulfilment needs.
