In Problems 13-19, assume that the population of x values has an approximately normal distribution.
Archaeology: Tree Rings At Burnt Mesa Pueblo, the method of tree-ring dating gave the following years A. D, for an archaeological excavation site (Bandelier Archaeological Excavation Project: Summer 1990 Excavations at Burnt Mesa Pueblo, edited by Kohler, Washington State University):
1189.1271 1267 1272 1268 1316 1275 1317 1275
(a) Use a calculator with mean and standard deviation keys to verify that the sample mean year is
1272, with sample standard deviation s 37 years.
(b) Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean of all tree-ring dates from this archaeological site.
(c) Interpretation What does the confidence interval mean in the context of this problem
