This study investigates the hours per month spent on theInternet by U.S. residents, age 18 to 24. The sample results are:n= 75, x-bar=28.5, and s=23.1 . We are to construct a 95%confidence interval based on this information.
a) What is critical value of t (that is, t*) for this confidenceinterval?
b) the standard error of the mean (SEM) is:
c) Rounded to one decimal place, as x-bar was, the margin oferror (MOE) for your confidence interval will be:
d) Which of the following conclusions is CORRECT?
