6. A machine produces cylindrical metal bolts with nominal diameter 1 cm. A random sample of 10 bolts gave the following measurements of the diameter: 1.00, 1.01, 0.97, 1.03, 1.04,0.99, 0.98,0.99, 1.01, 1.03 Assume that the diameters follow a Normal distribution. (a) Calculate the sample mean and sample standard deviation. [5 marks] (b) Given that the true standard deviation is actually 0.022 cm, find a 95% confidence interval for the mean diameter of bolts from this machine. [6 marks] (c) Based on the available data, has the machine been correctly calibrated? Justify your answer. (4 marks]
