Question
A random sample of 10 children found that their average growth for the first year was 9.8 inches, with a standard deviation of 0.96 inches. Find the 85% confidence interval of the mean growth of all American children in the first year of life.
What is the name of the confidence interval?
  • Two Independent Samples t Interval
  • One Sample t Interval
  • ANOVA
  • One Proportion z Interval
  • Two Proportion z Interval
  • Correlation t Interval
  • Chi-Square Interval for Independence
  • One Sample z Interval
  • Chi-Square Goodness of Fit Interval
  • Paired Samples t Interval

Have the assumptions been met? Check which assumptions have been met.
  • Equal population variances
  • Random sample
  • Independent trials
  • Normal Sampling Distribution: n₁p₁ ≥ 5, n₁(1 - p₁) ≥ 5 n₂p₂ ≥ 5 & n₂(1 - p₂) ≥ 5
  • Expected values ≥ 5
  • Known population standard deviation
  • Fixed number of trials
  • Normal Sampling Distribution: n ≥ 30 or Population is normally distributed
  • Two outcomes
  • Independent samples
  • Unknown population standard deviation
  • The proportion is constant
  • Normal Sampling Distribution: np ≥ 5 & n(1 - p) ≥ 5

Check which assumptions have not been met so we would say "the assumption may not be met" or have to check the histogram, box plot, and normal quantile plot.
