Which of the following is the concept illustrated with the misentered​ data? A. The procedure for constructing the confidence interval is robust. The larger the sample​ size, the more resistant the mean.​ Therefore, the confidence interval is less robust. B. The procedure for constructing the confidence interval is robust. The larger the sample​ size, the more resistant the mean.​ Therefore, the confidence interval is more robust. C. The procedure for constructing the confidence interval is not robust. The smaller the sample​ size, the less resistant the mean.​ Therefore, the confidence interval is more robust.

Answer: B. The procedure for constructing the confidence interval is robust. The larger the sample​ size, the more resistant the mean.​ Therefore, the confidence interval is more robust.

Explanation:

Large sized data samples usually have more stability than data with small samples, they yield a mean value which edges closer to the value of the population data. This means that large size data samples will have a mean which is more resistant to change than samples with a lower sample size. The confidence interval gives robustness while constructing a model by giving te leverage for a range of values based in a certain level of confidence upon which a statistical vale can be tested for validity.
