The compressive strength of concrete is being tested by a civil engineer. He tests 12 specimens and obtains the following data. $\begin{array}{llll}2216 & 2237 & 2249 & 2204 \\ 2225 & 2301 & 2281 & 2263 \\ 2318 & 2255 & 2275 & 2295\end{array}$ (a) Check the assumption that compressive strength is normally distributed. Include a graphical display in your answer. (b) Construct a $95 \%$ two-sided confidence interval on the mean strength. (c) Construct a $95 \%$ lower confidence bound on the mean strength. Compare this bound with the lower bound of the two-sided confidence interval and discuss why they are different.
