One step in the manufacture of a certain metal clamp involves the drilling of four holes. In a sample of 100 clamps, the average time needed to complete this step was
80seconds and the standard deviation was 15 seconds.
a.Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean time needed to complete the step.
b.Find a 99.5% confidence interval for the mean time needed to complete the step.
c.What is the confidence level of the interval (78,82)?
d.How many clamps must be sampled so that a 95% confidence interval specifiesthe mean to within ±1 seconds?
e. How many clamps must be sampled so that a 99.5% confidence interval specifies the mean to within ±1 seconds?
Test tube level indicator length is the quality characteristic of interest. 28 samples with sample size of 4 each, are chosen from the process. The data yields an average length of 11 cm and process standard deviation of 4 cm. What is the probability of having the length between 9 and 12 cm?

He rated the performance of each cycle and then calculated the average normal time for each item. The item with the largest dispersion had a mean of 0.30 minutes and a standard deviation of 0.03 minutes.
