Transcribed Image Text:Here are summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls: n= 36, x= 3197.2 g, s = 692.6 g. Use a confidence level of 95% to complete parts (a) through (d) below.
a. Identify the critical value to/2 used for finding the margin of error.
ta/2=
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
b. Find the margin of error.
E= g
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
c. Find the confidence interval estimate of µ.
g<µ<g
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
d. Write a brief statement that interprets the confidence interval. Choose the correct answer below.
A. One has 95% confidence that the sample mean weight of newborn girls is equal to the population mean weight of newborn girls.
B. There is a 95% chance that the true value of the population mean weight of newborn girls will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.
C. Approximately 95% of sample mean weights of newborn girls will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.
D. One has 95% confidence that the interval from the lower bound to the upper bound contains the true value of the population mean weight of newborn girls.
