Listed below are the amounts of net worth​ (in millions of​ dollars) of the ten wealthiest celebrities in a country. Construct a 90​% confidence interval.

What does the result tell us about the population of all​ celebrities? Select the correct choice below​and, if​ necessary, fill in the answer​ box(es) to complete your choice.     A. We are confident that 90​% of all celebrities have a net worth between ​$nothing million and ​$nothing million. ​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)   B.

What is the confidence interval estimate of the population mean
μ​?
 
​$nothing
million<μ<​$nothing
million
​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)
What does the result tell us about the population of all​ celebrities? Select the correct choice below​and, if​ necessary, fill in the answer​ box(es) to complete your choice.
 
 
A.
We are confident that
90​%
of all celebrities have a net worth between
​$nothing
million and
​$nothing
million.
​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)
 
B.
Because the ten wealthiest celebrities are not a representative​ sample, this​ doesn't provide any information about the population of all celebrities.
 
C.
We are
90​%
confident that the interval from
​$nothing
million to
​$nothing
million actually contains the true mean net worth of all celebrities.
​(Round to one decimal place as​ needed.)
Do the data appear to be from a normally distributed population as​ required?
 
 
A.
​Yes, because the pattern of the points in the normal quantile plot is reasonably close to a straight line.
 
B.
​No, but the points in the normal quantile plot lie reasonably close to a straight line and show some systematic pattern that is a straight line pattern.
 
C.
​Yes, but the points in the normal quantile plot do not lie reasonably close to a straight line or show a systematic pattern that is a straight line pattern.
 
D.
​No, because the points lie reasonable close to a straight​ line, but there is a systematic pattern that is not a straight line pattern.
