Construct the confidence interval for the population standard deviation for the given values. Round your answers to one decimal place.
n=20, s=4.2, and c=0.99
We have given here,
Sample standard deviation=4.2
Sample size =20
Degree of freedom =n-1=19
Level of significance given =1-0.99=0.01
Chi square critical value for lower tail=6.844
Chi square critical value for upper tail=38.582
We can use here confidence interval formula for population standard
deviation
=(2.947,6.998)
Lower confidence limit for population standard
deviation=2.9
Upper confidence limit for Population standard
deviation=7.0
