Alicia would like to know if there is a difference in the average price between two brands of shoes. She selected and analyzed a random sample of 40 different types of Brand A shoes and 33 different types of Brand B shoes. Alicia observes that the boxplot of the sample of Brand A shoe prices shows two outliers. Alicia wants to construct a confidence interval to estimate the difference in population means.

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Alicia would like to know if there is a difference in the average price between two brands of shoes. She selected and analyzed a random sample of 40 different types of Brand A shoes and 33 different types of Brand B shoes. Alicia observes that the boxplot of the sample of Brand A shoe prices shows two outliers. Alicia wants to construct a confidence interval to estimate the difference in population means.

Is the sampling distribution of the difference in sample means approximately normal?

a) Yes, because Alicia selected a random sample

b) Yes, because for each brand it is reasonable to assume that the population size is greater than ten times its sample size.

c) Yes, because the size of each sample is at least 30

d) No, because the distribution of Brand A shoes has outliers

e) No, because the shape of the population distribution is unknown.

the sampling distribution of  the difference in sample means is approximately normal because the size of each sample is al least 30

Option (c) Yes, because the size of each sample is at least 30 ) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

sample size of brand A shoes = 40

sample size of brand B shoes = 33

As we can notice,

= 40 > 30

= 33 > 30

Hence, we consider both samples to be large.

Therefore, the sampling distribution of  the difference in sample means is approximately normal because the size of each sample is al least 30.

Option (c) Yes, because the size of each sample is at least 30 ) is the correct answer.

$20.01

step-by-step explanation:

the sale price is (1.00 - 0.77)($87), or 0.23($87), or $20.01.

see below

step-by-step explanation:

7.   there are 10 data points in the set.   the middle point is between 5 and 6.   the middle point in the top half is 8   and the middle point in the bottom half is 3. to find the iqr , take point 8 and subtract point 3

mid term   point 8 = 100   point 3 = 88

iqr = 100-88 = 12

final   point 8 = 93   point 3 = 78

iqr = 93 - 78 = 15

the final has the greatest iqr

6.   b - there is a high data value that causes the data set to be asymmetrical for the males: the data for males are high and asymmetrical .   there is an outlier for the males that skews the data

5.   the   iqr is a better measure of spread for the movies and basketball games.   since the basketball game has an outlier, we do not want to use standard deviation for measurement.  

3.   the exam median is much higher than the class median.   the median line is farther to the right on the exams

2.   there is no way to tell what the means are from the box and whisker plots.
