Imagine that researchers appropriately conduct a paired-samples t test with 25 pairs of related scores. The mean difference between those 25 pairs of scores was 5.00. The standard deviation for the 25 difference scores was 7.50. Which of the following is the appropriate 95% confidence interval for these data (when reporting three decimal places)?

a. [2.768, 7.332]
b. [-10.480, 20.480]
c. [2.434, 7.567]
d. [1.904, 8.096]
e. None of the Above

Uisng the confidence interval relation, the appropriate interval for the experiment conducted would be [1.904, 8.096]

Recall :

Plugging the values into the relation :

Lower boundary = 5 - 3.0945 = 1.904

Upper boundary = 5 + 3.0945 = 8.096

Hence, the confidence interval is [1.904, 8.096]

The correct option is;

d. [1.904, 8.096]

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval is given as

Where:

= Mean = 5

s = Standard deviation = 7.5

n = Number in sample = 25

z = z value at 95% =

As we have a small sample size and an unknown population standrd deviation, we get from a two tailed confidence level

z = from the students at 95% two tailed confidence level = 2.0639

Which gives the confidence interval as;

CI = (1.90415, 8.0958)

The critical z = 2.0639  

she was supposed to add the hours(38.5) and multiply the amount of money she earned(7.50) resulting in $288.75 .

correct me if i'm wrong and if it is i'm truly sorry.
