    A basketball coach timed 8 players' tryouts and recorded their times in minutes. The times were normally distributed. A 98% confidence interval was calculated for the population mean time. The interval was determined to be 5.85 to 8.41 minutes based on a mean of 7.13 minutes, standard deviation of 1.55, and critical z-score of 2.33 for the 98% confidence level.

    MODULE 4: DISCUSSION
    A basketball coach randomly selected eight players
    and timed how long it took to perform in a try out.
    Here are the tables of minutes:
    10 6 8 7
    6 5 7 8
    Assuming that the times follow a normal distribution,
    find a 98% confidence interval for the population mean.

    level of confidence 98%


    1-c 0.02
    (1-c)/2 0.01
    left critical value -2.33
    right critical value 2.33

    The corresponding z-scores are ± 2.33

    Column1
    5 Mean 7.13
    6 Standard Error 0.55
    6 Median 7.00
    7 Mode 6.00
    7 Standard Deviation 1.55
    8 Sample Variance 2.41
    8 Kurtosis 0.59
    10 Skewness 0.64
    Range 5.00
    Minimum 5.00
    Maximum 10.00
    Sum 57.00
    Count 8.00
    Confidence Level (98%) 1.65

    n=8 Mean = 7.13 SD = 1.55 zc = 2.33

    Margin of error 1.55


    = 2.33
    √8

    = 1.28

    Left endpoint = 7.13 - 1.28


    = 5.85
    Right endpoint = 7. 13 + 1.28
    = 8.41
    Interval = 5.85 < 𝜇 <8.41
