Question

A study by the department of education of a certain state was trying to determine the mean SAT scores of the graduating high school seniors. The study found that the mean SAT score was 516 with a margin of error of 20. Write a confidence interval for the true mean SAT score of the graduating high school seniors.

Answer 1

A confidence interval for the true mean SAT score of the graduating high school seniors will be (496; 536)

What is a confidence interval?

A confidence interval (CI) is a range of estimates for an unknown parameter in frequentist statistics.

Mean score ± margin of error

Margin of Error = 20

Mean SAT score = 516

Hence,the confidence interval will be:-

=  516   ±  20

Lower boundary  =  516   -   20  = 496

Upper boundary  =  516   +  20  =  536
