A laboratory tested twelve chicken eggs and found that the mean amount of cholesterol was 185 milligrams with sequals17.6 milligrams. Construct a​ 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content of all such eggs.

Respuesta :

Answer: 95% confidence interval would be (175.04,194.96).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 185 mg

Standard deviation = 17.6 mg

At 95% confidence level, z = 1.96

So, Interval would be

[tex]\bar{x}\pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=185\pm 1.96\times \dfrac{17.6}{\sqrt{12}}\\\\=185\pm 9.958\\\\=(185-9.958,185+9.958)\\\\=(175.042,194.958)\\\\=(175.04,194.96)[/tex]

Hence, 95% confidence interval would be (175.04,194.96).
