Assume that the probability distribution of the net deposit drain of a Depository Institution (DI) has been estimated to have a mean of 3 per cent of total deposits and a standard deviation of 1 per cent. Is this DI increasing or decreasing in size? Explain.
Below is part of the answer. What I want to know is hot do you get the values between 1 and 5 percent? Also the 95%
If the distribution is normal, we can state with 95 per cent confidence that the rate of decrease of deposits will be between 1 per cent and 5 per cent
See the image below. In the normal distribution, 1 standard deviation around the mean covers approx 68 percent of the data and 2 standard deviation around the mean covers the approx 95 percent of the data. and since the mean is 3 and the standard deviation is 1:
3 - 1 < x < 3 + 1 will cover the 68 percent of the data.
3 - 2 < x < 3 + 2 will cover the 95 percent of the data.
3 - 3 < x < 3 + 3 will cover 99.7 percent of the data.
Since 95 percent confidence interval is the most commonly used in statistics, they have given answer in the term of 95 percent confidence interval. Otherwise, you can also write the answer as
If the distribution is normal, we can state with 68 percent confidence that the rate of decrease of deposits will be between 2 percent and 4 percent
or
If the distribution is normal, we can state with 99.7 percent confidence that the rate of decrease of deposits will be between 0 percent and 6 percent
All the answers will be correct
Remember this percentage as they are very commonly used in statistics.
Hope it helps !

1) A sample of size 25 is chosen from a population. Assume the probability distribution is normal. If the mean of the sample is 80 and the standard deviation is 6, find the lower bound of the 99% confidence interval. Round off to three decimal places. 2) A sample of size 36 is chosen from a population. The sample mean is 50 and the standard deviation is 5. Find the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval for the population...

R problem 1: The reason that the t distribution is important is that the sampling distribution of the standardized sample mean is different depending on whether we use the true population standard deviation or one estimated from sample data. This problem addresses this issue. 1.

Solocting a distribution for inforences on the population mean Suppose that we want to estimate the number of holding penalties assessed during a college football game. The sample of games we pick has a mean of 3.4 penalties per game and a standard deviation of 0.7 penalties per game. For each of the following sampling scenarios, determine which test statistic is appropriate to use when making inference statements about the population mean. (In the table, Z refers to a variable...
