I need help with all parts of this quesiton 18

**Confidence Interval for a Population Mean**

Calculate the necessary confidence interval for a population mean \( \mu \) using the following values. Ensure to round your answers to two decimal places.

- Significance level (\( \alpha \)): 0.05
- Sample size (\( n \)): 83
- Sample mean (\( \bar{x} \)): 66.4
- Sample variance (\( s^2 \)): 2.88

**Confidence Interval Range:**

\[ \_\_\_\_\_\_ \text{ to } \_\_\_\_\_\_ \]

**Interpret the Constructed Interval:**

Choose the correct interpretation from the options below:

- ○ In repeated sampling, 95% of all intervals constructed in this manner will enclose the population mean.
- ○ In repeated sampling, 5% of all intervals constructed in this manner will enclose the population mean.
- ○ There is a 95% chance that an individual sample mean will fall within the interval.
- ○ There is a 5% chance that an individual sample mean will fall within the interval.
- ○ 95% of all values will fall within the interval.

This exercise will help you understand and apply the concept of confidence intervals in statistics.

Expert Solution
Step 1

It is given that 

X̄ = 66.4,  n = 83

s2 = 2.88 => s = 1.697

α = 0.05

Confidence interval = 1 - α

   = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

steps
