A 90% confidence interval for the mean is best described in the following statement: a.    We are confident that the mean obtained from our single study will equal the population mean 90% of the time in the long run b.    We are confident that the interval obtained from our single study will NOT contain the population mean 90% of the time in the long run c.    In the long run, if we followed the same procedure to calculate intervals exactly 90% of such intervals will contain the population mean d.    We are confident that the interval obtained from our single study will contain the population mean 90% of the time in the long run e.    We are confident that the interval obtained from our single study will contain the population mean with a probability of 0.9 in the long run
