QUESTION:

For a normal population with known variance \(\sigma^{2}\), answer the following questions:

(a) What is the confidence level for the interval \(\bar{x}-2.14 \sigma / \sqrt{n} \leq \mu \leq \bar{x}+2.14 \sigma / \sqrt{n}\)?

(b) What is the confidence level for the interval \(\bar{x}-2.49 \sigma / \sqrt{n} \bar{x}-2.49 \sigma / \sqrt{n} \leq \mu \leq \bar{x}+2.49 \sigma / \sqrt{n}\)?

(c) What is the confidence level for the interval \(\bar{x}-1.85 \sigma / \sqrt{n} \leq \mu \leq \bar{x}+1.85 \sigma / \sqrt{n}\)?

(d) What is the confidence level for the interval \(\mu \leq \bar{x}+2.00 \sigma / \sqrt{n}\)?

(e) What is the confidence level for the interval \(\bar{x}-1.96 \sigma / \sqrt{n} \leq \mu\)?
