Q4

A hospital is trying to cut down on emergency room wait times. It is interested in the amount of time

patients must wait before being called back to be examined. An investigation committee randomly

surveyed 70 patients. The sample mean was 1.5 hours with a sample standard deviation of 0.5 hours.

Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean time spent waiting.
