The ages of MBA students at a university are normally distributed with a known population variance of 10.24. Suppose you are asked to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean age if the mean of a sample of 36 students is 26.5 years. What is the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population mean

The margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is of 1.05 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of .

So it is z with a pvalue of , so

Now, find the margin of error M as such

In which is the standard deviation of the population(square root of the variance) and n is the size of the sample.

What is the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population mean

36 students, so

Variance of 10.24, so

The margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is of 1.05 years.

step-by-step explanation:

this is not a question

the function makes a strait line horizontally with no x intercept but a y intercept at 9.
