Answer 1

ANSWER:

Would a 90% confidence interval for a population mean be narrower or wider than the :

We have to obtained the 90% confidence interval for a population mean be narrower or wider than the corresponding 95% interval is ,

Here ,

• A 90% Confidence Interval would be narrower than a 95% Confidence Interval.

EXPLANATION:

This presents because the as the precision of the confidence interval increments (i.e, Confidence Interval width reducing), the reliability of an interval containing the actual mean reduces (less of a range to possibly cover the mean).

Therefore,

OPTION (1) is correct answer.(NARROWER)

• A 90% Confidence Interval would be narrower than a 95% Confidence Interval.
