A data set includes 108 body temperatures of healthy adult humans having a mean of 98.3degrees°F and a standard deviation of 0.6

9degrees°F. Construct a 99​% confidence interval estimate of the mean body temperature of all healthy humans. What does the sample suggest about the use of 98.6°F as the mean body​ temperature? What is the confiedence interbal estimate of the population mean μ​?

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size : n=106

Sample mean : \overline{x}=98.3^{\circ}\ F

Standard deviation : \sigma= 0.69^{\circ}F

Significance level : \alpha: 1-0.99=0.01

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=2.576

Then , 99​% confidence interval estimate of the mean body temperature of all healthy humans will be :-

98.3\pm (2.576)\dfrac{0.69}{\sqrt{106}}\\\\\approx98.3\pm0.173=(98.3-0.173,\ 98.3+0.173)=(98.127,\ 98.473)

Since 98.6 is higher than the upper limit of the confidence interval (98.473), then this suggest that the mean body temperature could be lower then 98.6 degrees.

The best estimate of population mean is always the sample mean. \mu=\overline{x}=98.3^{\circ}\ F

Which number will have the same result when rounded to the nearest ten or hundred A-97 B-118and5 C-179 D-5091
slamgirl [31]
Lets round it to the nearest ten
A 97 ====> 100
B 118 ===> 120
C 179 ===> 180
D 5091 ==> 5090
No result yet, lets round to the nearest hindred.
A 97 ====> 100
B 118 ===> 100
C 179 ===> 180
D 5091 ==> 5100
As we can see only A give the same result when we round it to the nearest hundred and nearest ten.
