d. Write a brief statement that interprets the confidence interval. Choose the correct answer
below.
O A. One has 99% confidence that the sample mean weight of Pepsi in a can is equal to the
population mean weight of Pepsi in a can.
OB.
One has 99% confidence that the interval from the lower bound to the upper bound
contains the true value of the population mean weight of Pepsi in a can.
OC. Approximately 99% of sample mean weights of Pepsi in a can will fall between the lower
bound and the upper bound.
O D.
There is a 99% chance that the true value of the population mean weight of Pepsi in a
can will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.
