DATAfile: Tobacco Fires You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. The mean cost to repair the smoke and fire damage that results from home fires of all causes is $11,389. How does the damage that results from home fires caused by careless use of tobacco compare? The DATAfile named TobaccoFires provides the cost to repair smoke and fire damage associated with a sample of 55 fires caused by careless use of tobaco products.

What is the 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean cost to repair smoke and fire damage that results from home fires caused by careless use of tobacco? (Round your answer to the nearest dollar.) $ to $ How does this compare with the mean cost to repair the smoke and fire damage that results from home fires of all causes? The average cost to repair the smoke and fire damage that result from home fires of all causes is ---Select--- the 95% confidence interval for the mean cost of fires resulting from tobacco. This shows the mean cost of fires resulting from tobacco is --Select--than the average cost to repair the smoke and fire damage that results from home fires due to causes. [-70.55 Points] DETAILS ASWSBE13 8.E.014. MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEACHER PRACTICE AN You may need to use the appropriate appendix table or technology to answer this question. A simple random sample with n = 53 provided a sample mean of 24.5 and a sample standard deviation of 4.4. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) (a) Develop a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. to (b) Develop a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. to (c) Develop a 99% confidence interval for the population mean. to (d) What happens to the margin of error and the confidence interval as the confidence level is increased? O As the confidence level increases, there is a larger margin of error and a wider confidence interval. As the confidence level increases, there is a smaller margin of error and a more narrow confidence interval. O As the confidence level increases, there is a larger margin of error and a more narrow confidence interval. O As the confidence level increases, there is a smaller margin of error and a wider confidence interval.
