Students in a statistics class are conducting a survey to estimate the mean number of units students at their college are enroll

ed in. The students collect a random sample of 49 students. The mean of the sample is 12. 2 units. The sample has a standard deviation is 1. 6 units. What is the 95% confidence interval for the number of units students in their college are enrolled in? assume that the distribution of individual student enrollment units at this college is approximately normal.

Using the t-distribution, as we have the standard deviation for the sample, it is found that the 95% confidence interval for the number of units students in their college are enrolled in is (11.7, 12.7).

<h3>What is a t-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

\overline{x} \pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • t is the critical value.
  • n is the sample size.
  • s is the standard deviation for the sample.

The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed <em>95% confidence interval</em>, with 49 - 1 = <em>48 df</em>, is t = 2.0106.

Hence:

\overline{x} - t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 12.2 - 2.0106\frac{1.6}{\sqrt{49}} = 11.7

\overline{x} + t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 12.2 + 2.0106\frac{1.6}{\sqrt{49}} = 12.7

The 95% confidence interval for the number of units students in their college are enrolled in is (11.7, 12.7).
