Suppose scores on exams in statistics are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and population standard deviation of three points. A random sample of 38 scores are taken and gives a sample mean of 63. (a) Find and interpret a 92% confidence interval for the population mean of stats exam scores. (b) Find and interpret an 88% confidence interval for the population mean of stats exam scores.  (c) Which interval is more accurate to estimate the true mean and which interval is wider?

Estimation

A new framework of data analysis where the new statistical methods are used for interpreting the results and analyzing the data is known as estimation in statistics.
