For a normal distribution z.95=1.645
\n" ); document.write( "110+/-1.645*20=110+/-32.9, or (77.1, 142.9). It is the second choice.
\n" ); document.write( "==================
\n" ); document.write( "Here, it is 1/2 of a sd on each side, and that is the probability of -0.5\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
