3. Critical Thinking If you have a 99% confidence interval for m based on a simple random sample,

(a) is it correct to say that the probability that m is in the specified interval is 99%? Explain.

(b) is it correct to say that in the long run, if you computed many, many confidence intervals using the prescribed method, about 99% of such intervals would contain m? Explain.

For Problems 4–19, categorize each problem according to the parameter being estimated: proportion p, mean m, difference of means m1  m2, or difference of proportions p1  p2. Then solve the problem.
