Week 5 Day 3

Student t model

Learning objectives

• When we use the SE, the sampling distribution that allows for the additional uncertainty is Student’s t.
• Construct confidence intervals for the true mean, \(\mu\).
  • A confidence interval for the mean has the form \(\hat{x} \pm ME\).
  • The Margin of Error is \(ME = t* SE(\hat{x})\).
