For a particular brand of SUV, you want to estimate the miles per gallon (mpg). The manufacturer says that σ = 1.75 mpg. Find the sample size if you want a margin of error of ± 0.45 and 90% confidence?

2) In order to develop a confidence interval for the average miles per gallon (MPG) for a brand of hybrid car, a simple random sample of 97 cars is selected from the population of 10,000 cars manufactured. The 97 cars had a sample mean MPG of 51.9 MPG and a sample standard deviation of 4.5 MPG. (6 points) a) Compute a 99% confidence interval for the average miles per gallon (MPG) for this brand of car. b) Imagine that an...
Question 17 8 pts A test team takes readings from the miles per gallon (mpg) estimate reading in a new car while driving at 60 mph. The sample consists of 30 readings and has a mean of 31.3 mpg and a standard deviation of 11.7 mpg. The average mpg of all new cars is 27.6 mpg although the standard deviation is unknown. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the true miles per gallon for the new cars. HTML Editori Β...

It is necessary for an automobile producer to estimate the number of miles per gallon (mpg) achieved by its cars. Suppose that the sample mean for a random sample of 40 cars is 28.8 mpg and assume the standard deviation is 2.3 mpg. Now suppose the car producer wants to test the hypothesis that μ, the mean number of miles per gallon, is 29.3 against the alternative hypothesis that it is not 29.3. Conduct a test using a significance level...
