A researcher finds a 94% confidence interval for the average commute time in minutes using public transit is (17.86, 27.45). What is the correct interpretation of this interval?

  • A. There is a 94% chance commute time in minutes using public transit is between 17.86 and 27.45 minutes.
  • B. We are 94% confident that all commute time in minutes for the population using public transit is between 17.86 and 27.45 minutes.
  • C. We are 94% confident that the interval between 17.86 and 27.45 minutes contains the population mean commute time in minutes using public transportation.
  • D. We are 94% confident that the interval between 17.86 and 27.45 minutes contains the sample mean commute time in minutes using public transportation.
