LICE your answer. Question 4. [7 marks] [Chapter 6] A statistics student was interested in investigating the average time it takes to get a pizza delivered to their house from the local pizzeria. Over a few weeks, a random sample of 10 delivery times (in minutes) was recorded. The data are displayed below: 17.8, 23.1, 18.7, 24.7, 31.5, 22.3, 17.9, 20.3, 28.4, 27.2 Summary Statistics: x = 23.19 minutes and s = 4.72. (a) Calculate and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean delivery time. [6 Marks] Note: You must clearly show that you have followed the "Step-by-Step Guide to Producing a Confidence Interval by Hand" given in the Lecture Workbook, Chapter 6. Use the t-procedures tool to find values for the t-multiplier and standard error. (b) A friend of the statistics student pointed out to them that their confidence interval must be wrong as "more than half the values used to calculate it were not in the 95% interval, so how can they have 95% confidence in the interval?" Explain what was wrong with this thinking. [1 Mark]
