3.4 = –13.6 + (–3.4c) + 1.7c
3.4 = –13.6 –3.4c + 1.7c
17 = -1.7c

Given that a 90% confidence interval for the mean height of all adult males in Idaho measured in inches was [62.532, 76.478]. Us

grigory [225]

Answer:

The confidence interval on this case is given by:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

For this case the confidence interval is given by (62.532, 76.478)[/tex]

And we can calculate the mean with this:

$\bar X = \frac{62.532+76.478}{2}= 69.505$

So then the mean for this case is 69.505

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean
