True or false: Suppose that the 98% confidence interval from question 2 was 10 ± 2.37. A correct interpretation of this confidence interval would be: The confidence interval from 7.63 to 12.37 includes the mean number of drinks consumed per month in the population in 98% of all possible samples.

Step 1
37 = 7.63 and 10 + 2.37 = 12.37, so the interval is (7.63, 12.37). Show more…

Suppose that you obtained data by taking a random sample from a population and that you intend to find a confidence interval for the population mean. Answer True or False to the following question: Increasing the confidence level from 95% to 99% will decrease the margin of error.

A sound interpretation of a 95% confidence interval (CI) for a sample mean is that it implies there is a 95% probability that the true population mean falls within the interval encompassed by the 95% CI. True False

If a 90% confidence interval for the mean is (75.3 to 80.9), we would reject H0: μ = 70 in favor of H1: μ ≠ 70 at α = 0.05. True or False?
