A sample of 37 AA batteries had a mean lifetime of 584 hours. A 95% confidence interval for the population mean was 579.2< u < 588.8. Which statement is the correct interpretation of the results?
None of these statements correctly interpret the results.
We are 95% confident that the mean lifetime if all the bulbs in the population is between 579.2 and 588.8 hours
95% of the light bulbs in the sample had lifetimes between 579.2 hours and 588.8 hours.
The probability that the population mean is between 579.2 hours and 588.8 hours is 0.95.
If the expected value of the sample statistic is equal to the population being estimated, the sample statistic is said to
Have high precision.
Have low variability
Be an unbiased estimator of the population parameter.
Be a random estimator of the population parameter
The population parameter value and the point estimate differ because a sample is not a census of the entire population, but it is being used to develop the
Population parameter
Point estimate
Standard error
Population mean
The CEO of a company wants to estimate the percent of employees that use company computers to go on Facebook during work hours with 95% confidence.
