(choose chapter or problem)

Refer to Exercise  Use the normal approximation to estimate the critical values \(X_{100,0.025}^{2}\) and \(X_{100,0.975}^{2}\) for a  confidence interval, and construct a  confidence interval for .

A more accurate normal approximation to \(X_{k, a}^{2}\) is given by \(X_{k, a}^{2} \approx 0.5\left(Z_{a}+\sqrt{2 k-1)^{2}}\right.\), where  is the z-score that has area  to its right.
