a. Calculate the sample mean and standard deviation of retail prices paid for Madden NFL 09.

b. To determine if the average retail price has fallen, assume the population mean is $46, calculate the probability that a sample of size 200 would result in a sample mean no larger than the one calculated in part

a. Assume that the sample standard deviation is representative of the population standard deviation.

c. In part b you used $46 as the population mean.

Calculate the probability required in part b assuming that the population mean is $45.75.

d. On the basis of your calculations in parts b and c, does it seem likely that the average retail price for Madden NFL 09 has decreased? Explain.
