4B — Confidence Intervals for a Population Mean or a Population Mean Difference

Learning Targets

1. Use the 5C method to construct and interpret a confidence interval for mu.
1. Analyze the distribution of differences using a graph and summary statistics.
1. Check conditions for calculating a confidence interval for a population mean, mu.
1. Explain why the t-distribution is used instead of the standard normal distribution when the population standard deviation is unknown.
2. Find a critical t* value for a confidence interval for mu.
2. Understand the specific formula for calculating a confidence interval for a mean.
2. Use the 5C method to construct and interpret a confidence interval for a population mean difference, mu_diff.
