- Which 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_forward2-C. Construct and interpret a confidence interval to estimate the mean height of the population. You must first write the formula for the confidence interval and then substitute your appropriate numbers.
