A government bureau publishes annual price figures for new mobile homes. A simple random sample of 36 new mobile homes yielded the following prices, in thousands of dollars. Assume that the population standard deviation of all such prices is $7.5 thousand, that is, $7 comma 500. Use the data to obtain a 99.7% confidence interval for the mean price of all new mobile homes.

The 99.7% confidence interval for the mean price of all new mobile homes is ($60,672, $65,622).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

The prices in thousands of dollar are:

66.6, 69.8, 58.4, 57.3, 63.1, 61.8, 56, 72.7, 61.8,  

66.9, 72.6, 63.1, 58.7, 65.9, 61.1, 56.1, 49.9, 72.6,  

49, 56.4, 72.6, 60.1, 65, 64.8, 56.5, 52, 53.2,  

56.4, 75.4, 76.3, 60.5, 74.6, 57, 69.2, 62.7, 77.2.

We have a sample of n=36 new mobile homes.

The mean of this sample is:

The population standard deviation is σ=7.5 (in thousands of dollars).

The critical value of z for a 99.7% CI is z=2.97.

Then, we can calculate the margin of error as:

Now we can calculate the lower and upper bound of the confidence interval as:

The 99.7% confidence interval for the mean price of all new mobile homes is ($60,672, $65,622).

the slope of a line is equal to the rise/run. in this case the line rises 2 units for every +3 units it moves
