Question
The Excel file STATISTICSSTUDENTSSURVEYFORR contains the column YRAGE (a numerical variable that measures student age at the time of completing an online survey). For education purposes, consider this dataset to be a sample of size 60 taken from a much wider population for statistics students. Use R/Rcmdr to find a 97% confidence interval for the mean of the population. Choose the most correct (closest) statement below?
a.
Your confidence interval is (19.01790, 20.74877) yrs and it wider than a 90% confidence interval created from this data.
b.
Your confidence interval is (18.92152, 20.84515) yrs and is wider than a 90% confidence interval created from this data.
c.
Your confidence interval is (18.92152,20.84515)) yrs and is narrower than a 90% confidence interval created from this data.
d.
Your confidence interval is (19.01790, 20.74877) yrs and is narrower than a 90% confidence interval created from this data.

For Minitab (web), see Tutorials in D2L. For Geogebra, follow the directions below: Open it and click the "Statistics" tab just above the graph. For a confidence interval for a population mean, with unknown o, click the drop-down menu near the top (default is "Z Test of a Mean") and choose "T Estimate of a Mean." Enter the confidence level (in decimal form), sample mean, sample standard deviation, and sample size. We'll use a sample with = 65.17, s = 3.654, n = 26. Based on this sample data, a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is: <μ< The margin of error for this 95% confidence interval is Based on this sample data, a 99% confidence interval for the population mean is: <μ< The margin of error for this 99% confidence interval is -arrow_forward
