Question
In a random sample of 21 ​people, the mean commute time to work was
34.1 minutes and the standard deviation was 7.2 minutes. Assume the population is normally distributed and use a​ t-distribution to construct a
80​% confidence interval for the population mean μ.
What is the margin of error of μ​?
 
 
Interpret the results.
The confidence interval for the population mean μ is=(     ,      )
​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)
 
 
The margin of error of μ is=
​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)
 
 
Interpret the results.
 
A.If a large sample of people are taken approximately 80​%
of them will have commute times between the bounds of the confidence interval.
 
B.With 80​% ​confidence, it can be said that the population mean commute time is between the bounds of the confidence interval.
 
C.With 80​% confidence, it can be said that the commute time is between the bounds of the confidence interval.
 
D.It can be said that 80​% of people have a commute time between the bounds of the confidence interval.
