TABLE 8-1
A random sample of 100 stores from a large chain of 1,000 garden supply stores was selected to determine the average number of lawnmowers sold at an end-of-season clearance sale. The sample results indicated an average of 6 and a standard deviation of 2 lawnmowers sold. A 95% confidence interval (5.623 to 6.377) was established based on these results.
