A (univariate) confidence interval for the parameter θ is an
interval that covers the true parameter value with probability 1 −
α (before sampling). A confidence region for the p-dimensional
parameter θ is a region in p-dimensional space that covers the true
parameter value with probability 1 − α (before sampling). This
example is a univariate case. So the confidence region should be
same as the confidence interval.

The mean life of a battery used in a digital clock is 305 days. The lives of the batteries follow a normal distribution. The battery was recently modified to last longer. A sample of 20 of the modified batteries had a mean life of 308 days with a standard deviation of 12 days. A hypothesis test is undertaken to determine whether the modification increased the battery life. What is the value of the test statistic for the hypothesis test? In...
