The CONFIDENCE(alpha, sigma, n) function returns a value that you can use to construct a confidence interval for a popula

The confidence interval is a range of values that are centered at a known sample mean.

Observations in the sample are assumed to come from a normal distribution with known standard deviation, sigma, and th

Question
The scores of a set of studens follow a normal distribution with standard deviation 15.
You test IQs for a sample of 50 students in your local school and obtain a sample mean of 105.
You want to compute a 95% confidence interval for the population mean.
A 95% or 0.95 confidence interval corresponds to alpha = 1 – 0.95 = 0.05.
