I'm having trouble understanding this question: Discuss the statements in the context of what we actually mean by a confidence interval. a). Once the endpoints of the confidence interval are numerically fixed, then the parameter in question (either mu or p) does or does not fall inside the "fixed" interval.
B). A given fixed interval either does or does not contain the parameter mu or p; therefore the probablity is 1 or 0 that the parameter is in the interval.
C). Nontrival probability statements can be made only about variables, not constants.

d). the confidence level c represents the proportion of all (fixed) intervals that would contain the parameter if we repeated the process many, many times.
