What price do farmers get for their watermelon crops? in the third week of july, a random sample of 37 farming regions gave a sample mean of x = $6.88 per 100 pounds of watermelon. assume that ? is known to be $1.94 per 100 pounds.
(a) find a 90% confidence interval for the population mean price (per 100 pounds) that farmers in this region get for their watermelon crop. what is the margin of error? (round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit $ upper limit $ margin of error $
(b) find the sample size necessary for a 90% confidence level with maximal error of estimate e = 0.25 for the mean price per 100 pounds of watermelon. (round up to the nearest whole number.) farming regions
(c) a farm brings 15 tons of watermelon to market. find a 90% confidence interval for the population mean cash value of this crop. what is the margin of error?
hint: 1 ton is 2000 pounds. (round your answers to two decimal places.) lower limit $ upper limit $ margin of error $

Aprisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. the first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel. the second leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after three days of travel. the third door leads immediately to freedom. (a) assuming that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2 and 3 with probabili- ties 0.5,0.3,0.2 (respectively), what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (b) assuming that the prisoner is always equally likely to choose among those doors that he has not used, what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (in this version, if the prisoner initially tries door 1, for example, then when he returns to the cell, he will now select only from doors 2 and 3.) (c) for parts (a) and (b), find the variance of the number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom. hint for part (b): define ni to be the number of additional days the prisoner spends after initially choosing door i and returning to his cell.
