elena55 [62]

Answer:

95% of the population spent between 16.8 hours to 26.2 hours on social media per month

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. subtracting 1 from sample size: 83-1= 82
  2. Note Mean=21.5 and standard deviation=2.5
  3. Subtracting confidence interval from 1 and dividing by 2: (1-0.95)/2=0.025
  4. At α=0.025 and dF=82,  the t-distribution table gives  1.984
  5. Divide standard deviation by square root of sample size: 21.5/√83= 2.36
  6. Multiplying answer in step 4 by answer in step 5: 2.36×1.984= 4.68
  7. For lower end: 21.5-4.68= 16.82
  8. for upper end: 21.5+4.68=26.18
