QuestionDance Company Students The number of students who belong to the dance company at each of several randomly selected small universities is shown below. Round sample statistics and final answers to at least one decimal place. \begin{tabular}{llllllll} 27 & 21 & 47 & 21 & 32 & 32 & 35 & 29 \\ 35 & 26 & 35 & 30 & 21 & 21 & 32 & 25 \end{tabular}
Send data to Excel
Estimate the true population mean size of a university dance company with 95%95 \% confidence. Assume the variable is normally distributed.

Studdy Solution
Compute the confidence interval:
Lower limit=xˉME=28.13.7=24.4\text{Lower limit} = \bar{x} - ME = 28.1 - 3.7 = 24.4
Upper limit=xˉ+ME=28.1+3.7=31.8\text{Upper limit} = \bar{x} + ME = 28.1 + 3.7 = 31.8
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is:
(24.4,31.8) \boxed{(24.4, 31.8)}
