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 $?
random sample of 16 observations was taken from a normally distributed population. The average in the sample was 80 with a variance of 144. a Construct a 90% confidence interval for 1. b. Construct a 99% confidence interval for . c. Discuss why the 90% and 99% confidence intervals are different. 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 d.
1. A random sample of size n is drawn from a population that is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 8. The sample mean is found to be 50. 1.a) Construct a 98% confidence interval (CI) for the population mean uif the sample size is 16. The critical value used is The (margin of) error for the 98% confidence interval (C.I.) is The resulting Cl is 1.b) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean u if the...

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.
The pages per book in a library are normally distributed with an unknown population mean. A random sample of books is taken and results in a 95% confidence interval of (237,293) pages. What is the correct interpretation of the 95% confidence interval? Select the correct answer below: We estimate with 95% confidence that the sample mean is between 237 and 293 pages. We estimate that 95% of the time a book is selected, there will be between 237 and 293...
Suppose a random sample of size 17 was taken from a normally distributed population, and the sample standard deviation was calculated to be s = 5.0. a) Calculate the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. Round your response to at least 3 decimal places. b) Calculate the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Round your response to at least 3 decimal places.
Suppose that pizza delivery times are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 6 minutes.
