Question

Researchers fed cockroaches a sugar solution. Ten hours later, they dissected the cockroaches and measured the amount of sugar in various tissues. Here are the amounts (in micrograms) of d-glucose in the hindguts of 5 cockroaches:

55.95

68.24

52.73

21.50

23.78

The method used to compute this confidence interval has a 95% probability of producing an interval that captures the

amount of d-glucose in hindguts x for a randomly selected lab cockroach fed a similar sugar solution.

mean amount of d-glucose in hindguts for the population of all lab cockroaches fed a similar sugar solution.

55.95

68.24

52.73

21.50

23.78

Explanation / Answer

Option D is correct.

Confidence Interval represents/intreprets that out of 5 sample, 95% of the samples represents the true population mean.
