An IQ test was given to a simple random sample of 75 students at a certain college. The sample mean score was 105.2. Scores on this test are known to have a standard deviation of 10. It is desired to construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean IQ scores of the students at the college.

What is the point estimate?

A 90% confidence interval for the average salary of all CEOs in the electronics industry was constructed using the results of a random survey of 45 CEOs. The interval was ($139,048, $154,144). Give a practical interpretation of the interval.

• 90% of the sampled CEOs have salaries that fell in the interval $139,048 to $154,144
• We are 90% confident that the mean salary of all CEOs in the electronics industry falls in the interval $139,048 to $154,144. 
• 90% of all CEOs in the electronics industry have salaries that fall between $139,048 to $154,144
• We are 90% confident that the mean salary of the sampled CEOs falls in the interval $139,048 to $154,144.
