A 95% confidence interval for the mean IQ of college students aged 20-25 years old was computed as (103, 110), based on a sample of 130 observations of IQ. The correct interpretation of this confidence interval is: We are 95% confident that the true mean IQ of college students is between 103 and 110 O 95% of individuals in the sample have IQs between 103 and 110 There is a 95% probability that the future sample mean IQ will be between 103 and 110 About 95% of future samples will have confidence intervals that contain the true mean

A 95% confidence interval for the mean IQ of college students aged 20-25 years old was computed as
(103, 110), based on a sample of 130 observations of IQ. The correct interpretation of this confidence
interval is:
We are 95% confident that the true mean IQ of college students is between 103 and 110
O 95% of individuals in the sample have IQs between 103 and 110
There is a 95% probability that the future sample mean IQ will be between 103 and 110
About 95% of future samples will have confidence intervals that contain the true mean
