There was a public speaker who gave a talk about retired men and their past jobs. He claimed retired men will have on an average of 7 differnt jobd in their lifetime. You know from the last CLS that of aAdd random sample of 50 retired men, the average number of jobs they had during their lifetimes was 7.2. The population standatd deviation is 2.1. Recall 95% confidence interval of the mean number of joBs was 6.62

A sociologist found that in a sample of 55 retired men, the average number of jobs they had during their lifetimes was 7.2. The population standard deviation is 2.4. Round intermediate and final answers to one decimal place. Part 1 The best point estimate of the mean is 7.2. Part 2 Find the 95% confidence interval of the mean number of jobs. Part 3 out of 4 Find the 99% confidence interval of the mean number of jobs.
