Question 305696: A study is run to estimate the mean total cholesterol level in children 2 to 6 years of age. A sample of 9 participants is selected and their total cholesterol levels are measured as follows:
185 225 240 196 175 180 194 147 223
Generate a 95% confidence interval for the true mean total cholesterol level children.
How it solves with 95% formula should be?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! A study is run to estimate the mean total cholesterol level in children 2 to 6 years of age. A sample of 9 participants is selected and their total cholesterol levels are measured as follows:
185 225 240 196 175 180 194 147 223
---
Find the sample mean (x-bar) = 196.11
and sample standard deviation (s = 29.00
-----------------------------
Generate a 95% confidence interval for the true mean total cholesterol level children.
----
Determine the standard error: E = (invT(0.975 with df=8)*29/sqrt(9)
= 2.306*9.667 = 22.29
--------
How it solves with 95% formula should be?
--------
95% CI:: 196.11- 29 < u < 196.11+29
