Without any prior information on the height of Christmas trees, how would you go about determining the 95% confidence interval for the population mean height of three-year-old Christmas trees?

What will be an ideal response?


The sample standard deviation should be found from an initial random sample of 30 trees. This sample standard deviation should then be used to determine the proper sample size for further testing. The sample mean and sample standard deviation from the second (larger) sample should be used to calculate the 95% confidence interval.
