Question

Your professor gives you a population of freshmen students at UCLA, and asks you to compute a 99% pivotal Cl for their mean high school GPAS. What would you do?

a. I would ask a classmate and do whatever they tell me to b. Cls make sense when we have samples and not the whole population. This is an absurd task and I would respectfully let my professor know that this is not reasonable c. I would respectfully do what my professor wants because want an A in this class d. I would use the bootstrap resampling with replacement of the population 10,000 times and compute a pivotal 99% Cl from the histogram of such mean GPAS
