1. A random sample of 25 observations was selected from a normally distributed population. The average in the sample was 84.6 with a variance of 400.a. Construct a 90% confidence interval for μ.b. Construct a 99% confidence interval for μ.c. Discuss why the 90% and 99% confidence intervals are different.d. What would you expect to happen to the confidence interval in part (a) if the sample size was increased? Be sure to explain your answer.

A random sample of n=12 values taken from a normally distributed population resulted in the sample values below. Use the sample information to construct a 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean. 112 111 90 109 111 102 115 100 108 102 108 110 The 98% confidence interval is from $ to $?
