Suppose that an accounting rm does a study to determine the time needed to complete one person's tax forms. It randomly surveys 125 people. The sample mean is 23.4 hours. There is a known population standard deviation of 6.8 hours. The population distribution is assumed to be normal. NOTE: If you are using a Student's tdistribution, you may assume that the underlying population is normally distributed. (In general, you must rst prove that assumption, though.) El Part (3) Find the following. (Enter exact numbers as integers, fractions, or decimals.) (i) x = 23.4 (ii) o'= 6.8 (iii) n = 125 E1 Part (b) In words, dene the random variables X and X 0 Xis the number of lax forms that an accounting rm completes, and X is the mean number of tax forms that an accounting rm completes. O Xis the number of tax forms that an accounting rm completes, and X is the mean number of tax forms that an accounting rm completes. O Xis the time needed to complete one person's tax forms. and X is the mean time needed to complete tax forms from a sample of 125 customers. 0 X is the time needed to complete one person's tax forms. and Xis the mean time needed to complete tax forms from a sample of 125 customers. E] Part (c) Which distribution should you use for this problem? (Round your answers to two decimal places.) w Explain your choice. 0 The Student's tdistribution should be used because the sample standard deviation is given. O The standard normal distribution should be used because the mean is given. 0 The standard normal distribution should be used because the population standard deviation is known. 0 The Student's t-distribution should be used because the sample mean is smaller than 30. Part (a) Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean time to complete the tax forms. (i) State the confidence interval. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) (ii) Sketch the graph. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) C.L. = = X (iii) Calculate the error bound. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) Part (e) If the firm wished to increase its level of confidence and keep the error bound the same by taking another survey, what change should it make? O It should increase the number of people surveyed. O It should decrease the number of people surveyed. Part (f) If the firm did another survey, kept the error bound the same, and only surveyed 49 people, what would happen to the level of confidence? Why? The level of confidence would be smaller because we have collected a smaller sample, obtaining less accurate information. O The level of confidence would be larger because we have collected a smaller sample, obtaining less accurate information. O There would be no change
