A Census Bureau report on the income of Americans says that with 90% confidence the mean income of all US households in a recent year was $57,005 with a margin of error of $742. This means that

Respuesta :

Answer: d. the census bureau got the result 57,005 plus or minus 742 using a method that will capture the true median income 90% of the time when used repeatedly.

Step-by-step explanation:

No t-value has been included in this interval so it cannot be correctly labeled a confidence interval.

This invalidates options a to c.

Option d is therefore the correct answer because it states that the census bureau simply got those results above without claiming that the results constituted a confidence interval.
