Question:
A large state university is interested in estimating the average monthly earnings of its alumni who graduated with a graduate degree (e.g., MSC, MA, MFA, Ph.D., etc.) over the last decade. from a large population with 5,305 observations (N=5,305), they select a random sample of 200 observations (n=200). The sample mean is $3,107.25 and the sample standard deviation is $419.78. For simplicity, they consider the confidence level to be equal to 95% and the critical value (the t-value) to be equal to 2. Estimate the unknown population means using a 95% confidence interval.
