In developing an interval estimate for a population mean,a sample of 50 observations was used.The interval estimate was 19.76 ± 1.32.Had the sample size been 200 instead of 50,the interval estimate would have been:

A) 19.76 ± .33
B) 19.76 ± .66
C) 19.76 ± 5.28
D) None of these choices.

Sample Size

The number of individual samples or observations collected in a statistical study.

Interval Estimate

An assortment of values, from sample statistics, which is envisioned to contain the value of a mysterious population parameter.

Population Mean

The average value of all elements in a complete set of a population.

  • Pinpoint the variables that dictate the span of a confidence interval, such as the confidence level, sample size, and population standard deviation.
  • Comprehend the influence of changes in sample size and population standard deviation on the confidence interval.
