- A fitness center is interested in finding a 90% confidence interval for the mean number of days per week that Americans who are members of a fitness club go to their fitness center. Records of 225 members were looked at and their mean number of visits per week was 2.1 and the standard deviation was 1.9. Round answers to 3 decimal places where possible. a. With 90% confidence the population mean number of visits per week is between and visits. b. If many groups of 225 randomly selected members are studied, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population mean number of visits per week and about percent will not contain the true population mean number of visits per week.arrow_forwardIn a sample of size 36, the sample mean was found to be 54.6.
