For each problem, determine whether you will use the z- or the t-distribution, or proportion.

A sample of 45 students selected from a large university produced a mean GPA (grade point average) of 2.77 and a standard deviation of 0.38. Make a 95% confidence interval for the mean GPA of all students at this university.

A sample of 46 students produced a mean age of 25 years old with a standard deviation of 2.8 years. Assume that the ages of students is normally distributed, find the 99% confidence interval for the population mean.

A company wants to estimate the mean net weight of all 32-ounce packages of its Yummy Taste cookies at a 90% confidence level.

4. An article a Florida newspaper reported on the topics that teenagers most want to discuss with their parents. The findings, the results of a poll, showed that 46% would like more discussion about the familyàfinancial situation, 37% would like to talk about school, and 30% would like to talk about religion.
