Question:
The following figure is from the website of a U.S. national environmental laboratory. It displays sample mean concentrations, with 95% confidence intervals, of three radioactive substances. The text accompanying the figure explained that “the first plotted mean is so there is a 95% chance that the actual result is between 0.9 and 3.1, a 2.5% chance it is less than 0.9, and a 2.5% chance it is greater than 3.1.” Is this a correct interpretation of a confidence interval? Explain.
