Question

you are given the sample mean and the sample standard deviation. use the info to construct the 90% and the 95% confidenc intervals for the population mean. interpret the results and compare teh widths of the confidence intervals. if convenient use technology to construct
A random sample of 45 hom theater systems has a mean price of 120.00 and a standard deviation of 18.70
construct the 90% confidence interval fo rthe population mean
the 90% confidence interval is _______ _______ round to two decimal places

Explanation / Answer

120+/-1.64*18.70/sqrt(45) =( 115.43, 124.57) The width of the confidence interval is 9.14 We are 90% confident that over a large number of samples, the mean will be in this interval
