Can you help me

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

You have data from a sample of 80 workers at a local factory who are full time employees. The mean systolic blood pressure of this sample 130. You know that the population standard deviation (σ) of all workers' systolic blood pressure at the local factory is 15. Which of the below represents a 95% confidence interval for the unknown population mean systolic blood pressure of local factory workers who are full time employees. (hint: since the population standard deviation (σ) is known, you can use the z-distribution for your confidence interval construction.) Select one: A. [126.71 – 133.29] B. [121.25 – 131.19] C. [125.68 – 134.32] D. [127.24 – 132.76] E. [129.83 – 131.15]

@kropot72

OpenStudy (kropot72):

The confidence interval is: \[\large C.I.=(\bar{x}-1.96\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}},\ \bar{x}+1.96\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})\]

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

So is it A. [126.71 – 133.29]

OpenStudy (kropot72):

Correct.

OpenStudy (kropot72):

I'll try.

OpenStudy (kropot72):

For a 99% confidence interval Z = 2.576. (In the previous question, for a 95% confidence interval Z = 1.96). Therefore use the previous equation, but change 1.96 to 2.576.

OpenStudy (kropot72):

Yes, you are correct again.

You're welcome :)
