Question 1057250: When 1460 subjects were​ asked, "On how many days in the past 7 days have you felt​ lonely?" the mean was 1.6. and the standard deviation was 2.25. The margin of error for a​ 95% confidence interval for the population mean is 0.12 Construct that confidence​ interval, and interpret it.
the confidence inveral goes from (,)

confidence interval(CI) = sample statistic + or - Margin of Error
:
CI = 1.6 + or - 0.12 = ( 1.48, 1.72 )
:
********************************************************************************
If we use the same sampling method to select different samples and compute a 95% interval estimates for each sample, then some of those intervals would include the population mean and some would not.
:
A 95% confidence level means that we would expect 95% of the interval estimates to include the population mean.
