The speeds of vehicles traveling on a highway are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. A random sample of 13 vehicles is taken and results in a sample mean of 55 miles per hour and sample standard deviation of 7 miles per hour. df t0.10 t0.05 t0.025 t0.01 t0.005 ... ... ... ... ... ... 9 1.383 1.833 2.262 2.821 3.250 10 1.372 1.812 2.228 2.764 3.169 11 1.363 1.796 2.201 2.718 3.106 12 1.356 1.782 2.179 2.681 3.055 13 1.350 1.771 2.160 2.650 3.012 Find the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution.

The speeds of vehicles traveling on a highway are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. A random sample of 11 vehicles is taken and results in a sample mean of 65 miles per hour and a sample standard deviation of 9 miles per hour. Find a 90% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution. Round the final answers to two decimal places.

The commute times for workers in a city are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. If a random sample of 20 workers is taken and results in a sample mean of 21 minutes and a sample standard deviation of 6 minutes, find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution. Find the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution. Use the portion of the table above. Round the final answer to two decimal places. Provide your answer below:
