Given is - the monthly maintenance costs have an average of $3500 and a standard deviation of $257. This means that around 95% of the distributed data lies within the ranges of -257 to +257 of the given standard deviation.
Hence, range becomes :
and
Thus, the range is (3243 , 3757)
Answer:
The null hypothesis is , in which x is the proportion tested.
The alternative hypothesis is
Step-by-step explanation:
A recent article in a university newspaper claimed that the proportion of students who commute more than miles to school is no more than x.
This means that at the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of at most x, that is:

The opposite of at most x is more than x, so the alternative hypothesis is:
