Math Problem Statement
A random sample of 40 college students has a mean earnings of $3120 over the summer months. Assume the population standard deviation of earnings over the summer months for college students is $677 and that the distribution of earnings over the summer months for college students is normally distributed. Determine whether a normal distribution or a t-distribution should be used or whether neither of these can be used to construct a confidence interval. Question content area bottom Part 1 A. Cannot use a normal distribution or a t-distribution. B. Use a normal distribution. C. Use a t-distribution.
