Does increasing the margin of error decrease the length of the confidence interval?
It depends on whether it is the Type I Error or the Type II Error that is increased.
99 percent confidence interval Population mean 24.4 to 38.0 find the mean sample?
if the confidence interval is 24.4 to 38.0 than the average is the exact middle: 31.2, and the margin of error is 6.8
How does Increasing the sample size while keeping the same confidence level has what effect on the margin of error?
The margin of error is reduced.
Is it true that the wider the confidence interval the less precise is the estimate?
All things being equal, a wider confidence interval (CI) implies a higher confidence. The higher confidence you want, the wider the CI gets. The lower confidence you want, the narrower the CI gets The point estimate will be the same, just the margin of error value changes based on the confidence you want. The formula for the CI is your point estimate +/- E or margin of error. The "E" formula contains a value for the confidence and the higher the confidence, the larger the value hence the wider the spread. In talking about the width of the CI, it is not correct to say more or less precise. You would state something like I am 95% confident that the CI contains the true value of the mean.
How do sample size confidence level and standard deviation affect the margin of error?
