- For the residents in 2014, use R to calculate the interval with 99% certainty that the interval contains the actual population mean of the residents by census tracts. Type in the interval with keyboard. We also know that in each year, the number of residents by census tract in the State of Maryland follows a normal distribution, and the variance in the number of residents within the State of Maryland is the same for different years.

Because belI peppers are an important commercial crop, this disease has undergone a great deal of agricultural research. It is thought that too much water aids the spread of the pathogen. Two fields are under study. The first step in the research project is to compare the mean soil water content for the two fields. Units are percentage of water by volume of soil.
