An example of 398 $E=50$ e.g. a normal population whose standard deviation $s=4$ & $T$ test statistic $t=3.79$. A $t$ statistic $t=3.79$ means that the sample mean was _____ standard deviations from the population mean. If the population were of _____ size, the confidence interval would likely be _____ than the sample mean. "Deconfirmed" "Never substantiated" "No effect" "Obvious effect" "This effect is significant" "Choose one" "large" "small"

A sample of size n = 88 is drawn from a normal population whose standard deviation is o = 78. The sample mean is x = 47.26. (a) Construct a 90% confidence interval for u. Round the answer to at least two decimal places. A 90% confidence interval for the mean is < u < .

A sample of size n=58 is drawn from a normal population whose standard deviation is σ=6.4. The sample mean is x̄=42.89. Part 1 of 2: (a) Construct a 99% confidence interval for μ. Round the answer to at least two decimal places. A 99% confidence interval for the mean is <μ<. Part 2 of 2: (b) If the population were not approximately normal, would the confidence interval constructed in part (a) be valid? Explain. The confidence interval constructed in part (a) (Choose one) be valid since the sample size (Choose one) large.

3. The following random sample was selected from a normal distribution: 4, 6, 5, 9, 3, 3 a. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean μ b. Assume the sample mean x and sample standard deviation s, remain exactly the same as those you calculated in part a but are based on sample size n= 25 observations rather than n=6 in part a. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean μ. What is the effect of increasing the population size on the width of the confidence interval?
