How to find the point estimate of a population mean


Asked by admin @ in Mathematics viewed by 277 People


g Determine the point estimate of the population mean and margin of error for the confidence interval. Lower bound is 21​, upper bound is 25. The point estimate of the population mean is nothing. The margin of error for the confidence interval is nothing.

Answer: The point estimate of the population mean is 23. The margin of error for the confidence interval is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for the mean is of the form is given by :-

\overline{x}-\text{error}\leq\mu\leq\overline{x}+\text{error}

Given : Lower bound: \overline{x}-\text{error}=21

Upper bound :\overline{x}+\text{error}= 25

Then ,the sum of lower and upper bound will be :-

2\overline{x}=21+25=46\\\\\Rightarrow\ \overline{x}=23

Since \overline{x}-\text{error}=21

\Rightarrow\ \text{Error}=\overline{x}-21=23-21=2

Hence, The point estimate of the population mean is 23. The margin of error for the confidence interval is 2.
