Hoping to lure more shoppers downtown, a city builds a new parking garage in the central business district. The city hopes that the parking revenues will pay for the garage.

During a recent two month period (44 days), the city statistician calculated the 95% confidence interval for the mean daily parking fees collected as:

($121, $131)

Using this confidence interval, what is the point estimate for the mean daily parking fees collected?

A) $121
B) $125
C) $126
D) $131

1 answer

You're right

2E + 121 = 131

2E + 121-121 = 131 -121

2E = 10

E = 5
Mean + E = 131

Mean +5 -5 =131-5

Mean =$126

You're right
