Question 380461: which 95% confidence interval has the higher S, sample standard deviation? why? (1000, 2000) or (999, 2001) Answer by robertb(5830) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assuming that the sample size is the SAME for both confidence intervals, then (999, 2001) would have the greater sd. The standard error for this interval would be greater, keeping all other factors fixed.
