Create a frequency table,histogram with 6 classes, construct a 96% confidence interval for the mean starting salary of graduates, what is the maximum error of your confidence interval.
Suppose you want to estimate the starting salaries of all 1999 four year college graduates. What is the minimum number of salaries you should include if you want to be 96% confident that your sample mean is within $750 of the true population mean? State 2 reasons why the data given should not be used to estimate the mean starting salaries for all 1999 U.S. college graduates. to obtain the data set go to www.sunydutchess.edu
