Here are summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls: nequals178, x overbarequals27.8 hg, sequals7.1 hg. Construct a confidence interval estimate of the mean.
n = Sample Size = 178
=Sample Mean = 27.8
s = Sample SD = 7.1
SE = s/
= 7.1/ = 0.5322
Take = 0.05
ndf = n - 1 = 178 - 1 = 177
From Table, critical values of t = 1.9735
Confidence Interval:
27.8 (1.9735 X 0.5322)
= 27.8 1.0502
= ( 26.7498 ,28.8502)
So,
Confidence Interval:
26.7498 < < 28.8502
