Use the standard norml distribution or the t-distribution to construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean. Justif

y your decision. If neither distribution. can be used,explain why. Interpret the results. In a random sample of 23 mortgage institutions,the mean interest rate was 3.65% and the standard deviation was 0.46%. Assume the interest rates are normally distributed.Which distribution should be used to construct the confidence interval?A. Use a normal distribution because the interest rates are normally distributed and is known.B. Use a t-distribution because it is a random sample, is unknown, and the interest rates are normally distributed.C. Use a normal distribution because n < 30 and the interest rates are normally distributed.D.Use a t-distribution because the interest rates are normally distributed is known.E. Cannot use the standard normal distribution or the t-distribution because is unknown, n <30, and the interest rates are not normally distributed.

Answer:

E) we will use t- distribution because is un-known,n<30

the confidence interval is (0.0338,0.0392)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step:-1</u>

Given sample size is n = 23<30 mortgage institutions

The mean interest rate 'x' = 0.0365

The standard deviation 'S' = 0.0046

the degree of freedom = n-1 = 23-1=22

99% of confidence intervals t_{0.01} =2.82  (from tabulated value).

The mean value = 0.0365

x±t_{0.01} \frac{S}{\sqrt{n-1} }

0.0365±2.82 \frac{0.0046}{\sqrt{23-1} }

0.0365±2.82 \frac{0.0046}{\sqrt{22} }

0.0365±2.82 \frac{0.0046}{4.690 }

using calculator

0.0365±0.00276

Confidence interval is

(0.0365-0.00276,0.0365+0.00276)

(0.0338,0.0392)

the mean value is lies between in this confidence interval

(0.0338,0.0392).

<u>Answer:-</u>

<u>using t- distribution because is unknown,n<30,and the interest rates are not normally distributed.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

I'll give you my way of solving it and you can figure it out from there.

<CEA = <DEB due to vertical angles

AE = ED due to midpoint theorem

<CAD = <ADB due to alternating angles theorem
