    This document provides instructions for students to complete asynchronous tasks on estimating confidence intervals when the population standard deviation is unknown. Students are asked to watch instructional videos on confidence intervals and the t-distribution. They are then instructed to complete exercises in their textbook and solve two sample problems, taking screenshots of their work. Finally, they are reminded that their output will be posted and reviewed on Monday.

    B. Do exercises on page 132, nos. 3 – 5 of your textbook and the problems below. Take a clear screen
    shot of your answer and paste it below this page.

    Solve the problems below:

    1. Twelve randomly selected people were asked how long they slept at night. The mean time was
    7.6 hours, and the standard deviation was 0.83 hour. Find the 95% confidence interval of the
    mean time. Assume the variable is normally distributed.

    2. The data represent a sample of the number of home fires started by candles for the past several
    years. Find the 99% confidence interval for the mean number of home fires started by candles
    each year.
