Margin of Error 

confidence interval 

Jump to level 1
Suppose the mean height in inches of all 9th grade students at one high school is
estimated. The population standard deviation is 2 inches. The heights of 6
randomly selected students are 72, 67, 70, 74, 61 and 68.
x = Ex: 12.34
Margin of error at 99% confidence level = Ex: 1.23
99% confidence interval = [Ex: 12.34 Ex: 12.34 1
[smaller value, larger value]
