(a) Determine the five number summary of this sample.

(b) What assumption will have to be made if we want to construct a confidence interval for the mean time spent by all shoppers in the mall? Explain.

(c) Construct an 80% confidence interval for the mean time spent by all shoppers in the mall. Interpret the result.

(d) Based on the result of part (c), at 20% level of significance, should we reject the null hypothesis for ? 75 minutes? Explain.

(e) In order to make the estimation of population mean corrected to within ±3 minutes at 95% confidence, what is the minimum sample size?
