Sherds of clay vessels were put together to reconstruct rim diameters of the original ceramic vessels at the Wind Mountain archaeological sitet. A random sample of ceramic vessels gave the following rim diameters (in centimeters). 15.9 13.4 22.1 12.7 13.1 19.6 11.7 13.5 17.7 18.1 USE SALT (a) Use a calculator with mean and sample standard deviation keys to find the sample mean x and sample standard deviation s. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) x = S = cm cm (b) Compute a 98% confidence interval for the population mean of rim diameters for such ceramic vessels found at the Wind Mountain archaeological site.

MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER A random sample of 20 adult male wolves from the Canadian Northwest Territories gave an average weight x1 = 98.4 pounds with estimated sample standard deviation s = 5.8 pounds. Another sample of 22 adult male wolves from Alaska gave an average weight x2 = 89.6 pounds with estimated sample standard deviation S = 6.6 pounds. USE SALT (a) Categorize the problem below according to parameter being estimated, proportion p, mean , difference of means - H2, or difference of proportions P1 - P2. Then solve the problem.
