A sample of 4 children was drawn from a population of rural Indian children aged 12 to 60 months. The sample mean of mid-upper arm circumference was 150 mm with a standard deviation of 6.73. What is a 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample is between 139.29 mm and 160.71 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 4 - 1 = 3

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 3 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of . So we have T = 3.1824

The margin of error is:

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 150 - 10.71 = 139.29 mm

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 150 + 10.71 = 160.71 mm

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample is between 139.29 mm and 160.71 mm.

This particular solid is called a torus, and looks like a dough-nut. Note: The 2-D figure may appear on coordinate axes, from which you can obtain measurement information about the figure. Rotations will most likely be about the y-axis or the x-axis (but may be about any vertical or horizontal line.)
