Question:
x̄=38 ,n =100 ,σ=33
a. Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean.
The 95% confidence interval is from
_____ to _____.

A. We can be 95% confident that the population mean μ , is within the margin of error of the sample mean,38.
B. We can be 95% confident that any possible value of the variable is within the margin of error of the population mean, μ.
C. We can be 95% confident that any possible value of the variable is within the margin of error of the sample mean, 38.
D. We can be 95% confident that any possible sample mean is within the margin of error of 38.
