Question 1 Use the command set.seed(student_ID) to initialize the random number generator for part (c). In a small empirical study, a sample of claim sizes, X for a certain line of business is observed. The data are shown below: Claim 4 5 6 7 89 10 11 12 Number Claim Size 13.3 15.4 17.1 18.9 19.0 21.2 22.0 25.4 26.0 27.8 23.5 25.5 (a) Estimate the expected value of X. Give your answer in 1 decimal place. 1 (b) 2 3 Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the expected value of X assuming that X is normally distributed. Interpret your answer.
