The resonance frequency of all tennis rackets of a certain type is normally distributed with known. The following is a 90% confidence interval was constructed for the mean resonance frequency of all such tennis rackets. (113.8, 118.2) What is the point estimate for the mean resonance frequency of this type of tennis racket?

Each of the following is a confidence interval for μ = true average (i.e., population mean) resonance frequency (Hz) for all tennis rackets of a certain type: (114.4, 115.6) and (114.1, 115.9). What is the value of the sample mean resonance frequency? Both intervals were calculated from the same sample data. The confidence level for one of these intervals is 90% and for the other is 99%. Which of the intervals has the 90% confidence level, and why?

The two intervals $(114.4,115.6)$ and $(114.1,115.9)$ are confidence intervals (computed using the same sample data) for $\mu=$ true average resonance frequency (in hertz) for all tennis rackets of a certain type. a. What is the value of the sample mean resonance frequency? (Hint: Where is the confidence interval centered?) b. The confidence level for one of these intervals is $90 \%$ and for the other it is $99 \%$. Which is which, and how can you tell?
