Answer: a.) $50188 to $57812

Step-by-step explanation: <u>Confidence</u> <u>Interval</u> (CI) is an interval of values in which we are confident the true mean is in.

The interval is calculated as

x ± z\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }

a. For a 95% CI, z-value is 1.96.

Solving:

54,000 ± 1.96.\frac{6000}{\sqrt{12} }

54,000 ± 1.96\frac{6000}{3.464}

54,000 ± 1.96*1732.102

54,000 ± 3395

This means the interval is

50605 < μ < 57395

<u>With a 95% confidence interval, the mean starting salary of college graduates is between 50605 and 57395 or </u><u>from 50188 to 57812$.</u>

<u />

b. The mean starting salary for college students in 2017 is $50,516, which is in the confidence interval. Therefore, since we 95% sure the real mean is between 50188 and 57812, there was no significant change since 2017.

Answer:

B. Brook finished in 100 minutes, so Lamont was faster.

Step-by-step explanation:
