Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean µ for the IQ scores of 25 statistics students. The mean is 118.0 and the sample standard deviation is 10.7. What is the critical value? Lower confidence limit and upper confidence limit.

Suppose that you have obtained data by taking a random sample from a population and that you intend to find a confidence interval for the population mean, μ. Which confidence level, 95% or 99%, will result in the confidence interval giving a more accurate estimate of μ?

Suppose we know the 99% confidence interval for a population mean is 129 +/- 15. If the confidence level is reduced to 95% which of the following is a possible confidence interval assuming it is constructed using the same sample. 129 +/- 12 129 +/- 16 129 +/- 17 We would need to know the sample size and the population size in order to answer this question.
