Textbook Question
Chapter 10.1, Problem 15E
Estimating Car Pollution. Each car in a sample of seven cars was tested for nitrogen-oxide emissions (in grams per mile), and the following results were obtained: 0.06, 0.11, 0.16, 0.15, 0.14, 0.08, 0.15 (based on data from the Environmental Protection Agency). Assume that nitrogen-oxide emissions are
- a. Assuming that this sample is representative of cars in use in the United States, construct a 95% confidence
interval estimate of themean amount of nitrogen-oxide emissions for all those cars.
