As part of its eco-friendly campaign, a company has asked for your advice whether installing a wind turbine will generate enough electricity to be cost effective. To produce enough electricity, the average wind speed needs to be least 18 mph. Based on historical data from the past 5 years, 47 days were randomly chosen and their wind speed measurements were written down. This resulted in an average wind speed of 19 mph with a standard error of 0.6126 mph. A histogram of these wind speeds yielded a right-skewed shape. 1) Are the conditions met for constructing a confidence interval?
A) It is reasonable to assume that weather conditions on the various days were independent of each other.
B) The days were randomly chosen.
C) The Nearly Normal condition is met.
D) None of the conditions are met.
2) Find the 98% confidence interval for the true average wind speed.
3) Does the above confidence interval provide evidence that a wind turbine would be cost effective?
A) No, since the lower boundary is less than the required wind speed of 14 mph, it is possible the true average wind speed is less than 14 mph.
B) No, since the lower boundary is greater than the required wind speed of 14 mph, there is evidence the true average wind speed is greater than 14 mph.
C) Yes, since the lower boundary is greater than the required wind speed of 14 mph, there is evidence the true average wind speed is greater than 14 mph.
D) Yes, since the lower boundary is less than the required wind speed of 14 mph, it is possible the true average wind speed is less than 14 mph.
