[Steps Shown] A consumer magazine has contacted a simple random sample of 33 owners of a certain model of automobile and asked each owner how many defects
Question: A consumer magazine has contacted a simple random sample of 33 owners of a certain model of automobile and asked each owner how many defects had to be corrected within the first 2 months of ownership. The average number of defects was \(\bar{X}\) = 3.7, with a standard deviation of 1.8 defects.
- Use the t distribution to construct a 95% confidence interval for μ = the average number of defects for this model.
- Use the z distribution to construct a 95 % confidence interval for μ = the average number of defects for this model.
- Given that the population standard deviation is not known, which of these two confidence intervals should be used as the interval estimate for μ
