Construct a 95 confidence interval for a population mean The
Construct a 95% confidence interval for a population mean. The sample mean is X = 19 and the standard error of the mean is X = 3. (Points : 4) draw no conclusion 12.12, 24.24 13.12, 24.88 reject image. 13.89, 26.88
Solution
Note that              
               
 Lower Bound = X - t(alpha/2) * se              
 Upper Bound = X + t(alpha/2) * se              
               
 where              
               
 df = n - 1 = 6 - 1 =   5          
 X = sample mean =    19          
 t(alpha/2) = critical z for the confidence interval =    2.776445105          
 se = standard error =    3          
               
 Thus,              
               
 Lower bound =    10.67066468          
 Upper bound =    27.32933532          
               
 Thus, the confidence interval is              
               
 (   10.67066468   ,   27.32933532   ) [ANSWER]

Hi! If there are typos in this problem, (there\'s a \"reject image\" part), please resubmit this if that effected the answer. That way we can continue helping you! Thanks!
