A. Use the one-mean t-interval procedure with the sample mean, sample size, sample standard deviation, and confidence level given below to find a confidence interval for the mean of the population from which the sample was drawn.
b. Obtain the margin of error by taking half the length of the confidence interval.
c. Obtain the margin of error by using the formula talpha/2. s/(n)^1/2.
x overbar = 20 n = 25 s = 4 confidence level = 98%

a) (17.227, 22.773)

b) 2.773

c) 2.773

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sample size, n = 25

Standard deviation, s = 4

Sample mean, x' = 20

Level of significance, a = 0.98 = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02

The degrees of freedom, df, for a t-distribution = n - 1 = 25 - 1 = 24

Using the t table, the Critical value =

Margin of error, E =

Limits of 98% confidence interval, we have:

Lower limit : x' - M.E = 20 - 2.773 = 17.227

Upper limit: x' + M.E = 20 + 2.773 = 22.773

Therefore, (17.227, 22.773) is 98% confidence interval.

b) Let's the margin of error by taking half the length of the confidence interval.

Since we are to use half the length of CI, we have:

c)
