- In a survey of 40 students in an introductory statistics class, a professor asks how many states in the United States each student has visited. Using the data from the professor's sample, a 99% confidence interval for the average number of states all students at the professor's school have visited is found to be (6.78, 12.18). Determine whether each of the following statements is valid or invalid. You may assume that the sample is representative of all students at the professor's school.
