Mary wishes to estimate the mean height of women aged 18 to 24 . She picks a sample of 100 women aged between 18 and 24 and constructs a 99% confidence interval for the population mean. If she were to repeat this procedure 300 times in total, she would obtain 300 different confidence intervals. How many of these intervals would you expect to contain the population mean, mu? Explain your thinking.
