A random sample of the commissions earned by local Tupperware dealers last month is given below.
$4377.47 $3183.76 $1970.16 $2270.88 $3860.06
$2508.55 $1569.64 $4205.30 $1663.68 $3960.71
a. Find x-bar and s for this data set.
b. Construct a 99 percent confidence interval for the mean commission earned by local Tupperware dealers. You may assume the commissions are normally distributed.
For A, would I just add them up then divide by 10 for the x-bar? I am not sure how to find the S.
For B. I am not really sure how to go about setting it up.
Thank you so much for your time and for your help.
