question 51

Short Answer

Use the following information to answer the question. In 2007, the average number of hours spent online at home for U. S. adults with internet access was 8.9 hours with a standard deviation of 0.4 hours. The U. S average was determined by collecting cluster data from thirty randomly selected states. Assume the distribution of time spent online at home is approximately unimodal and symmetric.
-If a new report came out saying that on average, Floridian adults spent 8.0 hours online while at home, would you say this was an unusual value? If it was unusual, explain how you reached your conclusion and whether it was unusually high or low.
