A researcher wants to predict the mean height of teenage
basketball players. To estimate this, the heights (cm) of a random
sample of 200 high school basketball players were measured. The
mean value was 170cm, with a 95% CI of [160cm,180cm]. What is the
most appropriate interpretation of this confidence interval?
We are 95% confident that the interval [160cm,180cm] contains
the population mean height for teenage basketball players.
We are 95% confident that the sample mean height was between
160cm and 180cm.
The range of heights was between 160cm and 180cm in the
population.
The range of heights was between 160cm and 180cm in the
sample.
