A national survey asked 1,501 randomly selected employed adults how many hours they work per week. Based on the collected data,
a 95 percent confidence interval for the mean number of hours worked per week for all employed adults was given as (41.18, 42.63). Which of the following statements is a correct interpretation of the interval? A. Ninety-five percent of all employed adults work between 41.18 hours and 42.63 hours per week.
B. The probability is 0.95 that a sample of size 1,501 will produce a mean between 41.18 hours and 42.63 hours.
C. Of all samples of size 1,501 taken from the population, 95% of the samples will have a mean between 41.18 hours and 42.63 hours.
D. We are 95% confident that the mean number of hours worked per week for employed adults in the sample is between 41.18 hours and 42.63 hours.
E We are 95% confident that the mean number of hours worked per week for all employed adults is between 41.18 hours and 42.63 hours.
