The number of hours that a nine month old baby sleeps at night are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 1.5 hours and an unknown population mean. A random sample of 22 nine month old babies is taken and results in a sample mean of 12 hours. Find the margin of error for a confidence interval for the population mean with a 90% confidence level. z0.10z0.10 z0.05z0.05 z0.025z0.025 z0.01z0.01 z0.005z0.005 1.282 1.645 1.960 2.326 2.576 You may use a calculator or the common z values above. Round the final answer to two decimal places.

The margin of error for a confidence interval for the population mean with a 90% confidence level is 0.53 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of .

So it is z with a pvalue of , so

Now, find the margin of error M as such

In which is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

In this quesstion:

So

The margin of error for a confidence interval for the population mean with a 90% confidence level is 0.53 hours.

the 1st digit is in the 100s n its 1

step-by-step explanation:

3,589÷18 = 199.389

so the first digit of the quotient is in the 100s n its 1
