Exercise 49
In Problems 13-19, assume that the population of x values has an approximately normal distribution.
Critical Thinking: Boxplots and Confidence Intervals The distribution of heights of 18-year-old men in the United States is approximately normal, with mean 68 inches and standard deviation 3 inches (U.S. Census Bureau). In Minitab, we can simulate the drawing of random samples of size 20 from this population (

In Minitab, we can simulate the drawing of random samples of size 20 from this population (            Calc     Random Data     Normal , with 20 rows from a distribution with mean 68 and standard deviation 3). Then we can have Minitab compute a 95% confidence interval and draw a boxplot of the data (    Stat     Basic Statistics     I-Sample t , with boxplot selected in the graphs). The boxplots and confidence intervals for four different samples are shown in the accompanying figures. The four confidence intervals are     (a) Examine the figure [parts (a) to (d)]. How do the boxplots for the four samples differ Why should you expect the boxplots to differ 95% Confidence Intervals for Mean Height of 18-Year-Old Men (Sample size 20)                     (b) Examine the 95% confidence intervals for the four samples shown in the printout. Do the intervals differ in length Do the intervals all contain the expected population mean of 68 inches If we draw more samples, do you expect all of the resulting 95% confidence intervals to contain = 68 Why or why not
