- Q8. Select the best response. A 95% confidence interval of a mean is -0.91 to 1.36. From this we can infer with 95% confidence that the population mean is greater than -0.91.A. TrueB. FalseC. None of the abovearrow_forwardWhich one of the following statements about confidence intervals is false? Given the same sample of data, a 99% confidence interval will be wider than a 95% confidence interval. The size of the population affects the width of a confidence interval. The sample statistic determines the center of the confidence interval. The value of z* affects the width of a confidence interval. The general format of a confidence interval is “sample statistic ± margin of error.”arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is correct about confidence intervals? A. Higher confidence levels result in narrower confidence intervals. B. Higher confidence levels result in lower standard error of the mean. C. The goal of constructing a confidence interval is to estimate the population mean from the sample mean. D. Both A and C.arrow_forward

A 95% confidence interval for the mean weight was calculated to be from 280.2 to 289.8 pounds. What is being estimated by this confidence interval? Choose one: a. the weights of all pigs at this farm. b. the mean weight of 25 pigs at this farm. c. the mean weight of all pigs at this farm. d. the middle 95% of weights for pigs at this farm.arrow_forwardA statistics practitioner took a random sample of 59 observations from a population whose standard deviation is 32 and computed the sample mean to be 95.
