    1. The file IQscores.csv contains the IQ scores for 31 randomly selected grade 7 girls in
    a particular school district.
    1. Find the mean of the sample using Excel (include your Excel formula in your solutions).
    b) IQ scores typically follow a Normal distribution and are designed so that σ = 15. Using this information, compute three confidence intervals (90%, 95%, and 98%) for the mean IQ score and fill in the table below. Please show any computations needed to find the margin of error.Confidence levelZ-critical valueMargin of errorConfidence intervalLength of interval90%95%98%c) What seems to be happening to the size of the interval as we increase our level of confidence?IQscores.csv is as followsIQ Score1141001048910291114114103105108130120132111128118119867211110374112107103989611211293

Answer

Mean=AVERAGE(A1:A30)105.5667  
s.d. 15  
sample size  30  
Confidence levelZ-critical valueMargin of errorConfidence intervalLength of interval
     
90%1.6454.505(101.062, 110.071)9.009
95%1.9605.367(100.199, 110.934)10.735
98%2.3266.371(99.196, 111.938)12.742

From Column A1 to A30 is the data

Z-critical value=ABS(NORM.S.INV((1-0.90)/2)) for 90%

                         =ABS(NORM.S.INV((1-0.95)/2)) for 95%

                            =ABS(NORM.S.INV((1-0.98)/2)) for 98%

Margin of error = Z-critical value*s.d./sqrt(30)

Length of interval = Upper limit – lower limit
