- The compressive strength of concrete is being tested by a civil
engineer who tests 12 specimens and obtains the following
statistics: sample mean, x=2260, and standard
deviation, s=35.
- What is the critical t value that should be used to
construct a 95 two-sided confidence interval?
- Construct a 95% two-sided confidence interval for the true mean
compressive strength. Clearly interpret your confidence
interval.
- What is the critical value that should be used to construct a
95% lower confidence interval?
- Construct a 95% lower confidence interval for the true mean
compressive strength. Clearly interpret your confidence
interval.
- What is the critical value that should be used to construct a
95% upper confidence interval?
Construct a 95% upper confidence interval for the true mean
compressive strength. Clearly interpret your confidence
interval.
