If this bound is calculated once, there is a 5% chance that these bounds will capture a future individual value of cadence for a healthy man. If this bound is calculated once, there is a 95% chance that these bounds will capture a future individual value of cadence for a healthy man.

(Round your answers to two decimal places.) (a) Calculate an upper confidence bound for population mean escape time using a confidence level of 95%. (b) Calculate an upper prediction bound for the escape time of a single additional worker using a prediction level of 95%. How does this bound compare with the confidence bound of part (a)? The upper prediction bound is lower than the upper confidence bound. The upper prediction bound is higher than the upper confidence bound. The upper prediction bound is equal to the the upper confidence bound. (c) Suppose that two additional workers will be chosen to participate in the simulated escape exercise. Denote their escape times by X27 and X 28, and let X new denote the average of these two values. Modify the formula for a PI for a single x value to obtain a PI for Xnew and calculate a 95% two-sided interval based on the given escape data.
