Find the sum of numbers in the last column to get.

So standard deviation is

As sample size is more than 30, we assume that distribution is normal as per central limit theorem

Now we need to find

As distribution is normal we can convert x to z and using excel formula we get.

Bird’s data analyst wants to model the sample mean distance of scooter rides. They plan to take a random sample of 41 scooter rides and to record the distance traveled on each ride (distance before the rider “releases” the scooter and the charge is processed).

In the sample, the mean is 0.54 mile and the standard...
