Twelve different video games showing drug use were observed. The duration times of drug use were recorded, with the times (sec
onds) listed below. Assume that these sample data are used with a 0.05 significance level in a test of the claim that the population mean is greater than 85 sec. If we want to construct a confidence interval to be used for testing that claim, what confidence level should be used for a confidence interval? If the confidence interval is found to be −1.8 sec<μ<213.5 sec, what should we conclude about the claim? The given confidence interval ▼ does not contain contains the value of 85 sec, so there ▼ is is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean is greater than 85 sec
95% confidence level should be used for a confidence interval.
The given confidence interval contains the value of 85 sec, so there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean is greater than 85 sec.
Step-by-step explanation:
0.05 significance level
1 - 0.05 = 0.95
0.95*100% = 95%
This means that a 95% confidence level should be used for a confidence interval.
Confidence interval is found to be −1.8 sec<μ<213.5 sec, what should we conclude about the claim?
Contains the value of 85 sec, thus there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean is greater than 85 sec.
