For 30 randomly selected Rolling Stones concerts, the mean gross earnings is 2.89 million dollars. Part a) Assuming a population standard deviation gross earnings of 0.5 million dollars, obtain a 99% confidence interval for the mean gross earnings of all Rolling Stones concerts (in millions). Confidence interval: ( Part b) Which of the following is the correct interpretation for your answer in part (a)? U A. We can be 99% confident that the mean gross earnings for this sample of 30 Rolling Stones concerts lies in the interval O B. There is a 99% chance that the mean gross earnings of all Rolling Stones concerts lies in the interval O c.

A survey was done on 28 students, and the distribution of total study hours per week is bell-shaped with a mean of 13 hours and a standard deviation of 3.1 hours. Use the Empirical Rule to answer the following questions. a) 68% of the students spend between 12.41 X hours and 13.58 x hours on Statistics each week. b) 95% of the students spend between 11.82 X hours and 14.7 X hours on Statistics each week. c) 99.7% of the students spend between 11.24 X hours and 14.76 X hours on Statistics each week.arrow_forwardSleeping outlier: A simple random sample of ten college freshmen were asked how many hours of sleep they typically got per night.
