A point estimate is a sample statistic that gives the exact value of a population parameter, and a confidence interval provides ranges of values within which the population parameter is estimated to fall.

How is a confidence interval related to a point estimate? a. Whenever we cannot calculate an interval, the confidence interval is equal to the point estimate. b. The point estimate is the starting point of the interval. c. The point estimate is the midpoint of the interval. d. The point estimate is the ending point of the interval.
