- You have a sample of 48 randomly selected Vancouverites. On average (the sample mean), the people in your sample spent 425 hours eating food in 2020. The least time a person in the sample spent eating food in 2020 is 367 hours and the most time a person in the sample spent eating food in 2020 is 484 hours. What would be your best guess about the population standard deviation of the time a Vancouverite spent eating food in 2020? Give the number and explain (including assumptions you make about the population distribution).arrow_forwardFind the indicated probability and interpret the result.
