A simple random sample of size 64 is drawn from a normal population with a known standard deviation σ. The 95% confidence interval for the population mean μ is found to be (12, 16). The approximate population standard deviation σ is:
A sample of size n=20 is drawn from an approximately normal population whose standard deviation is 15.5 The sample mean is 46.2. Construct a 95% confidence interval for μ.
Suppose a random sample of 16 is selected from a population with a normal distribution with a known population standard deviation σ of 10. Assume that the sample mean is 4.2. Based on a 90% confidence interval for the population mean, we can conclude that 0.1 is a plausible number for the population mean μ. True False
A) Sample of size 15 is taken from among a population of egrets and used to calculate a 99% confidence interval for the true average wingspan in the population. Suppose the sample standard deviation is calculated to be s =6.2. What is the margin of error for the confidence interval? Round your answer to 3 decimal places. B) Suppose you are asked to construct a 99% confidence interval for an unknown population mean μ. The population standard deviation is unknown...

7. A researcher collected data from a normally distributed population with o-28 and an unknown population mean. The researcher used a sample the size of n=49 and got a mean of M=65. Construct a 95% confidence interval based on the researcher's data. What can you conclude about the population's mean based on this interval?
6. A sample of size n- 200 has a known population standard deviation of 15.0. The population appears to be skewed. Determine whether a margin of error should be calculated using a critical value of za, a critical value of ta/2, or neither. Oa critical value of ta2 O a critical value of za O neither 7. The mean of a sample size n 35 is 1860. The standard deviation of the sample is 102 and the population is normally...
