He is looking at two different areas of the city, and he wants to know if there is a significant difference between the mean prices of homes in the two areas. For the 39 homes he samples in the first area, the mean home price is $176,400. Public records indicate that home prices in the first area have a population standard deviation of $32,930. For the 32 homes he samples in the second area, the mean home price is $181,500. Again, public records show that home prices in the second area have a population standard deviation of $23,835. Let Population 1 be homes in the first area and Population 2 be homes in the second area. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean home prices in the two areas. Round the endpoints of the interval to the nearest whole number, if necessary. Lowest Endpoint = upper Endpoint=arrow_forwardSuppose that the mean score of a class of 34 students was 78.

- A company that supplies LP gas for heating keeps data on the low temperature for each day of each month. It sum-marizes these data by finding the mean, median, standard deviation and interquartile range. The company assumesthat people use the LP gas for heat when the temperature is below 70°, so it creates a second set of data by subtract-ing 70 from each daily low temperature. Which of the four summary statistics will change for this second data set?A) mean and median onlyB) mean and standard deviation onlyC) median and IQR onlyD) standard deviation and IQR onlyE) mean, median, standard deviation, and IQRarrow_forwardMario's weekly poker winnings have a mean of $353 and a standard deviation of $67.
