Hello I need assistance with these questions, showing work unnecessary just answers for multiple choice practice quiz
1) Elwin Osbourne, CIO at GFS, Inc., is studying employee use of GFS e-mail for non-business communications.

2) Life tests performed on a sample of 13 batteries of a new model indicated: (1) an average life of 75 months, and (2) a standard deviation of 5 months. Other battery models, produced by similar processes, have normally distributed life spans. The 98% confidence interval for the population mean life of the new model is _________.
3) The mean life of a particular brand of light bulb is 1200 hours and the standard deviation is 75 hours. Tests show that the life of the bulb is approximately normally distributed. It can be concluded that approximately 68% of the bulbs will last between _______.

7) A market researcher is interested in determining the average income for families in San Mateo County, California.

This process is an example of _______.
8) Suppose a population has a mean of 400 and a standard deviation of 24. If a random sample of size 144 is drawn from the population, the probability of drawing a sample with a mean less than 402 is _______.
