(a) A normal probability plot indicates that the data could come from a population that is normally distributed with no outliers. Compute a 95% conï¬dence interval for this data set.
(b) Suppose that the observation,41,is inadvertently entered into the computer as 14.Verify that this observation is an outlier.
(c) Construct a 95% conï¬dence interval on the data set with the outlier.What effect does the outlier have on the conï¬dence interval?
(d) Consider the following data set, which represents a simple random sample of size 36 from a population whose mean is 50. Verify that the sample mean for the large data set is the same as the sample mean for the small data set.

(e) Compute a 95% conï¬dence interval for the large data set. Compare the results to part (a).What effect does increasing the sample size have on the conï¬dence interval?
(f) Suppose that the last observation, 41, is in advertently entered as 14.Verify that this observation is an outlier.
(g) Compute a 95% conï¬dence interval for the large data set with the outlier. Compare the results to part (e).What effect does an outlier have on a conï¬dence interval when the data set is large?
