Noise levels at 5 airports were measured in decibels yielding the following data: 147,123,119,161,136 construct the 99% confidence interval for the mean noise level at such locations. assume the population is approximately normal. calculate the sample standard deviation for the given sample data. round your answer to one decimal place.

a) The 99% confidence interval for the mean noise level = [122.44, 151.96]

b) Sample standard deviation, s = 17.3dB

Explanation:

Noise levels at 5 airports = 147,123,119,161,136

Mean noise level

Variance of noise level

Standard deviation,

a) Confidence interval  is given by

For 99% confidence interval Z = 2.576,

Number of noises, n = 5

Substituting

The 99% confidence interval for the mean noise level = [122.44, 151.96]

b) Sample standard deviation

   Sample standard deviation, s = 17.3dB

im srry but ur wrong the answer is d a smooth rock, some red dirt, and an empty bird's nest.
