You work for a soft-drink company in the quality control division. You are interested in the standard deviation of one of your production lines as a measure of consistency. The product is intended to have a mean of 12 ounces, and your team would like the standard deviation to be as low as possible. You gather a random sample of 15 containers. Estimate the population standard deviation at a 98% level of confidence. 12.05 12 11.96 12.14 12.12
11.97 11.96 12.11 11.94 11.82
12 12.18 11.91 12.06 11.99
