1. Can you conclude that the average electric bill for residential customers in Mission Viejo in July > $150?

2. Give a 99% confidence interval for average amount spent by teenagers in Orange County each month on CD's.

3. Last year the average driving time from Fullerton to Mission Viejo was 40 minutes with a standard deviation of 6 minutes. Assuming that the standard deviation has not changed, can you conclude the average driving time has changed from last year?

4. Can you conclude that the average time spent waiting in the drive-thru line at the Jack-In-The-Box on the corner of Avery and the 5 Freeway is less than 3 minutes?

5. Assuming that the standard deviation is 9 yards, give a 95% confidence interval for the average distance Tiger Woods drives a golf ball.
