Calculate the margin of error and sample mean for
a confidence interval of (2,10)
Calculate interval size:
Interval Size = 10 - 2
Interval Size = 8
Calculate the margin of error:
Margin of Error = | ±Interval Size |
| 2 |
Margin of Error = ±4
Calculate sample mean:
The sample mean is just the midpoint of the confidence interval
Sample Mean x = | Interval Size |
| 2 |
Final Answers
Margin of Error = ±4
