Listed below are speeds (mi/h) measured from traffic on a busy
highway. This simple random sample was obtained at 3:30 P.M. on a
weekday. Use the sample data to construct a 90% confidence interval
estimate of the population standard
deviation.
61 63 63 57 63 52 60 59 60 70 62 68
The confidence interval estimate is ------mi/h < σ <------
mi/h.
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
Does the confidence interval describe the standard deviation for
all times during the week? Choose the correct answer
below.
A. No. The confidence interval is an estimate of the standard
deviation of the population of
speeds at 3:30 on a weekday, not other times.
B. Yes. The confidence interval describes the standard deviation
for all times during the week.
