    A bottled-water company claims that its 500 mL bottles contain on average 500 mL of water. To check this, a consumer independently purchases 25 bottles and measures the actual volume x (in mL) in each.


    She finds

    ∑x=12,450,∑x2=6,203,004
    1. Find an unbiased estimate of the true mean volume μ.

      [1]
    2. Use the formula:

      s2=n−1∑x2−n(∑x)2​​

      to determine an unbiased estimate of the variance of the bottle volumes.

      [2]
    3. Construct a 95% confidence interval for μ.

      [2]
    4. State in context a valid conclusion about the company’s claim at the 5% significance level.
