Answer:
a) the 95% confidence interval for the true mean µ is 60.971, 65.629
The exact 95% confidence interval for the true mean µ is 60.971, 65.629
P (x`- ∝ s/√n<u <x`+ ∝ s/√n) = 0.95
Step-by-step explanation:
n= 50
x`= 63.3
s= 8.4 minutes
∝= 95%= ±1.96
The formula for calculating the confidence interval is:
x`± ∝ s/√n
Putting the values
x`± 1.96 s/√n
63.3 ± 1.96(8.4/√50)
63.3± 2.3287
60.971, 65.629
a) the 95% confidence interval for the true mean µ is 60.971, 65.629
b) Putting the values
x`± 1.96 s/√n
63.3 ± 1.96(8.4/√50)
63.3± 2.3287
The exact 95% confidence interval for the true mean µ is 60.971, 65.629
c) The prediction level tells that the drying time of the wall from 60.971 to 65.629 minutes must be in the range 95 % of the time.
And is given by
P (x`- ∝ s/√n<u <x`+ ∝ s/√n) = 0.95
