The starting salaries of a random sample of three students who graduated from No

Question

The starting salaries of a random sample of three students who graduated from North Carolina State University last year with majors in the mathematical sciences are $45,000, $50,00o, and $40,000. (Note: do not use $ symbols or commas in your answers.) (a) Report the sample statistic that can be used to estimate the population mean starting salaries of all math science graduates at that university last year. 45,000 (whole number, no commas) (b) The margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for the true mean starting income is $12,421. Construct a 95% confidence interval Lower Limit 32579(whole number, no commas) x(whole number, no commas) (c) Mark all statements below that are true. An interval estimate is preferred to a sample statistic because an interval estimate gives a range of plausible values. A sample statistic is preferred to an interval estimate because it gives an exact value. A sample statistic is more accurate than an interval estimate. An interval estimate is preferred to a sample statistic because a sample statistic alone may be inaccurate, especially if the sample size is small

Explanation / Answer

b) here upper limit =samle mean +margin of error =45000+12421 =69842

c)

correct option is : an interval estimate is preferred to a sample statisitc because a sample statsitic alone may be inaccurate...................
