Short Answer Writing Assignment
All answers should be complete sentences.
We need to find the confidence interval for the SLEEP variable. To do this, we need to find the
mean and then find the maximum error. Then we can use a calculator to find the interval, (x – E,
x + E).
First, find the mean. Under that column, in cell E37, type =AVERAGE(E2:E36). Under that in
cell E38, type =STDEV(E2:E36). Now we can find the maximum error of the confidence interval.
To find the maximum error, we use the “confidence” formula. In cell E39, type
=CONFIDENCE.NORM(0.05,E38,35). The 0.05 is based on the confidence level of 95%, the
E38 is the standard deviation, and 35 is the number in our sample. You then need to calculate
the confidence interval by using a calculator to subtract the maximum error from the mean (x-E)
and add it to the mean (x+E).
1. Give and interpret the 95% confidence interval for the hours of sleep a student gets. (5
points)
SUMMARY for Z CI for population
mean
Margin of Error 0.44880
Lower limit CI 6.15120
Upper limit CI 7.04880
95% Cl (6.15,7.05)
Then, you can go down to cell E40 and type =CONFIDENCE.NORM(0.01,E38,35) to find the
maximum error for a 99% confidence interval. Again, you would need to use a calculator to
subtract this and add this to the mean to find the actual confidence interval.
2. Give and interpret the 99% confidence interval for the hours of sleep a student gets. (5
points)
SUMMARY for Z CI for population
mean
Margin of Error 0.58983
Lower limit CI 6.01017
