A quality control specialist for a restaurant chain takes a random sample of size 13 to check the amount of soda served in the 16 oz. serving size. The sample mean is 13.30 with a sample standard deviation of 1.54. Assume the underlying population is normally distributed. We wish to construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean for the amount of soda served. What is the error bound? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

13. A television manufacturer takes a random sample of 30 customers and determines the times (after purchasing) until the televisions need servicing have a mean of 6 years and a standard deviation of 1.2 years. a) Determine the 95% confidence interval for the mean and explain whether it is reasonable for the company to claim the mean time until servicing is needed is 6.4 years. b) Repeat a), but use a 90% interval. c) Suppose instead a larger sample of...

Suppose now that Maria takes a new random sample of a different size. She computes the resulting 96% confidence interval to be (2.33, 2.75) oz. It is known that the distribution of the amount of ice cream it takes for all Maria's customers to get a brain freeze is symmetric, unimodal, and has a standard deviation of 1.6 oz. Calculate the sample size used to compute the above confidence interval. Report your answer as a number (no symbols), and round...
