You have been tasked with watching paint dry on walls to determine their drying speed. You have watched 15 walls thus far of a specific paint brand with the following drying times on a sample wall (in hours): Find the lower bound of the 95% prediction interval of the drying time for the next trial of paint. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Added by Donald S.
Step 1
To find the mean, add up all the drying times and divide by the total number of walls observed. Mean = (x1 + x2 + ... + x15) / 15 Show more…

A paint manufacturer wants to determine the average drying time of a new interior wall paint. For a random sample of 46 test areas of equal size, he obtained a mean drying time of 63.4 minutes with a standard deviations 0.8 minutes. Assume that the population of drying times is normally distributed. A 98% confidence interval for the true mean drying time is closest to.

A paint manufacturer wants to determine the average drying time of a new interior wall paint. If for sample 12 test areas of equal size he obtained a mean drying time of 66.3 minutes and a standard deviation of 8.4 minutes, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean μ is (___ , ___).

A paint manufacturer wants to determine the average drying time of a new interior wall paint. For a random sample of 47 test areas of equal size, he obtained a mean drying time of 61.2 minutes with a standard deviations 0.8 minutes. Assume that the population of drying times is normally distributed. A 90% confidence interval for the true mean drying time μ is closest to.
