3.       According to the central limit theorem, for samples of size 64 drawn from a population with µ =800 and σ = 56, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means would equal  ______

4.       Life tests performed on a sample of 13 batteries of a new model indicated: (1) an average life of75 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 _________

5.       A large national company is considering negotiating cellular phone rates for its employees Human Resource department would like to estimate the proportion of its employee population who own an Apple iPhone. A random sample of size 250 is taken and 40% of the sample own and iPhone.. The 95% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion is _______
