The sample results indicated a mean 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.
-Referring to Table 8-1, of all possible samples of 100 stores drawn from the population of 1,000 stores, 95% of the sample means will fall between 5.623 and 6.377 lawnmowers.
