how to calculate standard error and confidence interval?
To compute the 95% confidence interval, start by computing the mean and standard error: M = (2 + 3 + 5 + 6 + 9)/5 = 5. σM = = 1.118. Z.95 can be found using the normal distribution calculator and specifying that the shaded area is 0.95 and indicating that you want the area to be between the cutoff points.
