Question

A study conducted by the Throw It Away program at the University of Iowa analyzed trash from n = 62 households. The households ranged in size from 2 - 11 members. The program found that, on average, 27.4 pounds of trash were thrown away from a household each week. The 95% confidence interval ranged from 24.2 to 30.6 pounds. How would you interpret this finding If the same sampling and statistical procedures are conducted 100 times, 95 times the true population mean will be encompassed between 24.2 pounds and 30.6 pounds and 5 times it will not Thus. I am 95 percent confident that this single confidence interval I computed includes the true parameter. I am 95 percent sure that the mean weight of weekly household trash is between 24.2 pounds and 30.6 pounds. 95% of the sample threw away between 24.2 and 30.6 pounds of trash each week. 5% of the sample's trash weighs less than 24.2 pounds. 95% of the sample's trash weighs more than 30.6 pounds.
