A. A sample of 100 observations taken from a population
a. A sample of 100 observations taken from a population produced a sample mean equal to 55.32 and a standard deviation equal to 8.4. Make a 90% confidence interval for µ,b. Another sample of 100 observations taken from the same population produced a sample mean equal to 57.40 and a standard deviation equal to 7.5. Make a 90% confidence interval for µ,c. A third sample of 100 observations taken from the same population produced a sample mean equal to 56.25 and a standard deviation equal to 7.9. Make a 90% confidence interval for µ,d. The true population mean for this population is 55.80. Which of the confidence intervals constructed in parts a through c cover this population means and which do not?
