Suppose that a manager is interested in estimating the average amount of money customers spend in her store. After sampling 36 transactions at random, she found that the average amount spent was $ 35.25 35.25.

Answer: The managers statment would most likely give the valid interpretation.

Step-by-step explanation: If the store manager is 95% confident that the average amount spent was between $31.84 and $38.66. Then the store manager is most likey correct so I would have to say I agree with the manager. This may be a tricky question at first, but look at the problem from a different perspective. I am very sorry if this happens to be wrong.
