Question

The proper operation of typical home appliances requires voltage levels that do not vary much. Listed below are 11 voltage levels (in volts) at a random house on 11 different days.

 

119.7 119.7 120.2 120.1 120.2
120.1 120.2 120 119.9 119.7
120.1        

 

The mean of the data set is 119.99; the sample standard deviation is 0.207; if the normality plot is not provided you may assume that the voltages are normally distributed.

Construct a 99% confidence interval for the variance (standard deviation) of all voltages in the house.

  1. Procedure:      
  2. Assumptions: (select everything that applies)
    • Population standard deviation is known
    • Normal population
    • Sample size is greater than 30
    • Population standard deviation is unknown
    • Simple random sample
    • The number of positive and negative responses are both greater than 10
  3. Unknown parameter:
