Asking 10 people how many siblings they have, results were as follow:
data set: 1, 3, 2, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1. n=10
Assume these data represent a random sample from an approximately normal population.
Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation using technology (TI, JMP, excel, etc.).
Compute confidence interval (may be 80%, 90%, 95%, etc.) for the mean. Please interpret your confidence interval in the context of the problem.

I have an original data set and 4 sets of transformed data to
which I applied a two-sample pooled variance t-procedure in R. I am
uncertain about to how to interpret the confidence intervals of the
transformed data since when I back-transform the endpoints by
undoing the original operation, I get values that don't seem
anywhere near correct. Each of the transformations that was applied
has been added as a suffix to the vector name containing the
transformed data (in...
