1. A research firm conducted a survey to determine the mean
amount heavy smokers spend on cigarettes in a week. A
sample of 36 heavy smokers revealed that 𝑥̅ = 1000. The
population standard deviation is known as 200. What would
be the
a. 90% confidence interval
b. 95% confidence interval
for the mean amount heavy smokers spend on cigarettes in
a week.

2. A random sample of 100 car owners in Metro Manila
shows that a car is driven on the average 13,500 kilometers
per year with a standard deviation of 1,900 kilometers.
Assuming that the distribution of measurements is
approximately normal, construct

b. 99% confidence interval
for the average number of kilometers a car is driven
annually in Metro Manila.
