A 95% confidence interval for the mean number of television per American household is (1.15, 4.20). For each of the following st
atements about the above confidence interval, choose true or false. a. The probability that u is between 1.15 and 4.20 is .95.
b. We are 95% confident that the true mean number of televisions per American household is between 1.15 and 4.20.
c. 95% of all samples should have x-bars between 1.15 and 4.20 televisions.
d. 95% of all American households have between 1.15 and 4.20 televisions
e. Of 100 intervals calculated the same way (95%), we expect 95 of them to capture the population mean.
f. Of 100 intervals calculated the same way (95%), we expect 100 of them to capture the sample mean.
The 95% is confidence interval its not a probability estimate. The probability will be different from the confidence interval. Confidence interval is about the population mean and is not calculated based on sample mean. Every confidence interval contains the sample mean. There is 95% confidence that the number of televisions per American household is between 1.15 to 4.20.
