Work on problem number 16 (a-b) on page 8-12; Given that X ?=699

Solution

Note that              
              
Lower Bound = X - z(alpha/2) * s / sqrt(n)              
Upper Bound = X + z(alpha/2) * s / sqrt(n)              
              
where              
              
X = sample mean =    699          
z(alpha/2) = critical z for the confidence interval =    1.959963985          
s = sample standard deviation =    20.4          
n = sample size =    110          
              
Thus,              
              
Lower bound =    695.1877452          
Upper bound =    702.8122548          
              
Thus, the confidence interval is              
              
(   695.1877452   ,   702.8122548   ) [ANSWER]

We are 95% confident that the true mean is between 695.19 and 702.81. [answer]

USING Z DISTRIBUTION              
              
Note that              
              
Lower Bound = X - z(alpha/2) * s / sqrt(n)              
Upper Bound = X + z(alpha/2) * s / sqrt(n)              
              
where              
              
X = sample mean =    699          
z(alpha/2) = critical z for the confidence interval =    2.575829304          
s = sample standard deviation =    20.4          
n = sample size =    110          
              
Thus,              
              
Lower bound =    693.989848          
Upper bound =    704.010152          
              
Thus, the confidence interval is              
              
(   693.989848   ,   704.010152   ) [answer]


We are 99% confident that the true mean is between 693.99 and 704.01. [answer]
