(b) How many of the 95% confidence intervals constructed from the 20 samples contain the population mean, = 90? (c) Choose ALL that are true. The sample means for Sample 19 and Sample 20 are different, so the center of the 95% confidence interval for Sample 19 is different from the center of the 95% confidence interval for Sample 20. The center of the 80% confidence interval for Sample 1 is 90, because the center of any confidence interval for the population mean must be the population mean. There is nothing wrong with the fact that the 95% confidence intervals are different from each other. Each confidence interval depends on its sample, and different samples may give different confidence intervals. For each sample, the 80% confidence interval for the sample is included in the 95% confidence interval for the sample. None of the choices above are true. Espaol ? I Suppose we are interested in studying a population to estimate its mean. The population is normal and has a standard deviation of = 4. We have taken a random sample of size n = 12 from the population. This is Sample 1 in the table below. (In the table, Sample 1 is written "S1", Sample 2 is written "S2", etc.) As shown in the table, the sample mean of Sample 1 is x = 90.2. Also shown are the lower and upper limits of the 80% confidence interval for the population mean using this sample, as well as the lower and upper limits of the 95% confidence interval. Suppose that the true mean of the population is = 90, which is shown on the displays for the confidence intervals. Press the "Generate Samples" button to simulate taking 19 more random samples of size n = 12 from this same population. (The 80% and 95% confidence intervals for all of the samples are shown in the table and graphed.) Then complete parts (a) through (c) below the table. Espaol ?
