You do a study of hypnotherapy to determine how effective it is in increasing the number of hours of sleep subjects get each night. You measure hours of sleep for subjects with the following results. Construct a % confidence interval for the mean number of hours slept for the population (assumed normal) from which you took the data. ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ;
The data in the Table are the result of a random survey of national flags (with replacement between picks) from various countries. We are interested in finding a confidence interval for the true mean number of colors on a national flag. Let the number of colors on a national flag.
Construct a localid="1648450905983" confidence interval for the true mean number of colors on national flags.
Fill in the blanks on the graph with the areas, the upper and lower limits of the Confidence Interval and the sample mean.

Which distribution should you use for this problem?
The mean age for all Foothill College students for a recent Fall term was . The population standard deviation has been pretty consistent at . Suppose that twenty-five Winter students were randomly selected. The mean age for the sample was . We are interested in the true mean age for Winter Foothill College students. Let the age of a Winter Foothill College student.
