Assume Y1, ...,Yn are IID normal random variables where mean μ
and variance "2 are both unknown. Assume
that ¯ Y = 0, and s, the sample standard deviation, equals sqrt(n).
Compute a 1 − a confidence interval for the
mean μ. Leave your answer in terms of ta/2, the critical value for
a t distribution. How many degrees of freedom does this t
distribution have?

probability that the sample mean, Y, takes on a value that is
within one unit of the population mean, μ?
That is, find P(|Y − μ| ≤ 1). (Round your answer to four decimal
places.)
