Question

d. calculate a 95% confidence interval for the population mean body temperature, based on the sample results for these 130 healthy adults. [Round your answer to 2 decimal places.]

  (__________ ,  _________)

g. Suppose the sample size had been 13 rather than 130, but the sample statistics turned out exactly the same. How would you expect a 95% confidence interval to differ in this case from the 95% interval in part d? 

                 

 

The midpoint would stay the same and the width would increase

 1- produce the confidence interval mentioned in part g. [Round your answer to 1 decimal place.]

Body Temperatures
Recall from Activity 12-01 and Exercise 15-3 that the body temperatures (in degrees
Fahrenheit) have been recorded for a sample of 130 healthy adults (Shoemaker,
1996). The sample mean body temperature is 98.249°F, and the sample standard
deviation is 0.733°F.
