A CI is desired for the true average stray-load loss μ (watts) for a certain type of induction motor when the line current is held at 10 amps for a speed of 1500 rpm. Assume that stray-load loss is normally distributed with σ = 2.9. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
(a) Compute a 95% CI for μ when n = 25 and x = 52.6.

watts
(b) Compute a 95% CI for μ when n = 100 and
x = 52.6.
,
watts
(c) Compute a 99% CI for μ when n = 100 and
x = 52.6.

watts
(d) Compute an 82% CI for μ when n = 100 and
x = 52.6.
,
watts
(e) How large must n be if the width of the 99% interval
for μ is to be 1.0? (Round your answer up to the nearest
whole number.)
