Exhibit 8-12 In order to estimate the average time spent on an exam at a local university, data were collected from a sample of 36 business students over a one-week period. Assume the population standard deviation is 6 hours. Refer to Exhibit 8-12. With a 95 probability, the margin of error is approximately 1.96 1.64 .21 .26
