- How do you interpret the confidence interval. Select all that apply. We are 95% confident that the population mean mercury content of Croaker white fish (pacific) is within the confidence interval. The confidence interval was calculated using a method that gives correct answers 95% of the time. There is a 95% probability that the sample mean mercury content of Croaker white fish (pacific) is within the confidence interval. We are confident that 95% of Croaker white fish (pacific) have mercury content within the confidence interval.arrow_forwardAbout 74% of MCC students believe they can achieve the American dream and about 65% of Ferris State Universtiy students believe they can achieve the American dream. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportions of Montcalm Community College students and Ferris State University students who believe they can achieve the American dream. There were 100 MCC students surveyed and 100 FSU students surveyed. a. With 95% confidence the difference in the proportions of MCC and FSU students who believe they can achieve the American dream is (round to 3 decimal places) and (round to 3 decimal places). b. If many groups of 100 randomly selected MCC students and 100 randomly selected FSU students were surveyed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group.
