Question 936670: A simple random sample from a normal distribution is taken in order to obtain a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. If the sample size is 8, the sample mean x̄ is 22, and the sample standard deviation s is 6.3, what is the margin of error? Show your answer to 2 decimal places.
A. df = 7; E = 3.3445.38 = 5.6566
B. df = 8; E = 3.3445.38 = 5.6566
C. df = 6; E = 2.3656.38 = 5.769
D. df = 7; E = 2.3656.38 = 5.869 Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
