    Question

    The pH (acidity) of the liquid is crucial for regulation of the dye absorption in cashmere sweaters. Research shows that the pH in a normal distribution varies with a mean of 4.22 and a standard deviation of 0.127. You will take a random sample of 10 sweaters. What then is the 95% confidence interval of the sample mean?


    1. FALSE: 1,61 ± 1,96(0,04)
    2. TRUE: 4,22 ± 1,96(0,04)
    3. FALSE: 4,22 ± 1,96(0,127)
    4. FALSE: 4,22 ± 1,96(2,236)

    1. 1,61 ± 1,96(0,04): Incorrect
    2. 4,22 ± 1,96(0,04): Correct
    3. 4,22 ± 1,96(0,127): Incorrect
    4. 4,22 ± 1,96(2,236): Incorrect
