Question 119

Multiple Choice

Solve the problem.
-When obtaining a confidence interval for a population mean in the case of a finite population of size N and a sample size n which is greater than 0.05N, the margin of error is multiplied by the following finite population Correction factor: NnN1\sqrt { \frac { N - n } { N - 1 } } Find the 95% confidence interval for the mean of 200 weights if a sample of 34 of those weights yields a mean of 155.7 lb and a standard deviation of 24.1 lb.
