The mean was 1016 gcm2 and the standard deviation was 0155


Researchers measured the bone mineral density of the spines of 94 women who had taken the drug CEE. The mean was 1.016 g/cm2 and the standard deviation was 0.155 g/cm2 . A 95% confidence interval for the mean is (0.984,1.048).

(a) True or false: 95% of the sampled bone mineral density measurements are between 0.948 and 1.048.

(b) True or false: 95% of the population bone mineral density values are between 0.948 and 1.048.

(c) T/F There is 0.95 probability that the population mean is in the interval (0.984,1.048).

(d) T/F If we take another sample of 94 women, there is 0.95 probability that the population mean will be in the 95% confidence interval (computed from this second sample).
