The mean amount of caffeine consumed inthe sample of women was 243.872 mg with a standard deviation of209.05 mg. In the article, researchers would like to include a 90%confidence interval.   

  • The values below are t critical point corresponding to 90%,95%, 98%, and 99% confidence. Which critical point corresponds to90% confidence?
    • 1.682
    • 2.698
    • 2.418
    • 2.018
  • With 90% confidence, we estimate the mean amount of caffeineconsumed by women is between  mg and  mg.(Round the limits of your interval to 4 decimal places.)
  • If the level of confidence were changed to 99%, what effectwould this have on the width of the calculated confidence interval?
    • the interval would narrow
    • the interval would widen
    • there would be no effect on the interval
