1. The mean score of a random sample of 35 Grade 11 students who took the first periodic test is calculated to be 86. The population variance is known to be 0.10. a) Find the 95% confidence interval for the mean of the entire Grade 11 students. b) Find the lower and upper confidence limits.

2. The mean and standard deviation of the scores of a random sample of 45 Grade 10 students who took the final test are calculated to be 76 and 12.5, respectively. Find the 95% confidence interval for the mean of the entire Grade 10 students.

3. Suppose a student measuring the boiling temperature of a certain liquid observes the readings (in degrees Celsius) 102.5, 101.7, 103.1, 100.9, 100.5, and 102.2 on 6 different samples of the liquid. He calculates the sample mean to be 101.82. If he knows that the standard deviation for this procedure is

1.2 degrees, what is the length of confidence interval for the population mean at a 90% confidence 4. Researchers are interested in the average heart rate of male college students. Assume a random sample of 130 male college students were taken from 200 students for the study. Find a 95% confidence interval
