QM110 / QM210
Confidence Interval Challenge
Given sample data from real business scenarios, construct the 95% confidence interval and see if it captures the true population mean.
How It Works
- You will face 10 business scenarios with sample statistics (n, x̄, s)
- For each scenario, enter the lower and upper bounds of your 95% CI
- The correct CI uses: x̄ ± t* · (s / √n) with df = n − 1
- 10 points if your CI captures the true mean and is close to the correct width
- 5 points if your CI captures the true mean but is too wide
- 0 points if your CI misses the true mean entirely
- After all 10 rounds, see your score, grade, and a CI visualization
95% Confidence Interval Formula
x̄ ± t*0.025, df · (s / √n)
