    Question

    Based on a random sample from a population, one finds as 95% confidence interval for μ\mu [18.70, 21.30]. Suppose the sample size is increased, all other conditions remaining the same. Does μ\mu = 21.4 for the same sample mean found, then also outside the new 95% confidence interval?


    1. FALSE: That depends on how that shifts the interval.
    2. TRUE: Yes.
    3. FALSE: No.
    4. FALSE: That depends on how much the sample size is increased.
