Question

Age of College Students Find the 90%confidence intervals for the variance and standard deviation of the ages of seniors at Oak Park College if a random sample of 29 students has a standard deviation of 2.2 years. Assume the variable is normally distributed. Use the chi-square distribution table to find any chi-square values to three decimal places. Round the final answers to one decimal place.

<<σ2

<<σ

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
