O D. Mean = Median

Answer 1

The t distribution can be used when finding a confidence interval for the population mean whenever the sample size is small.

Hence, the correct option is A.

To estimate the population mean we use a t-distribution to calculate the confidence interval. When we use a t-distribution the sample standard deviation is used to estimate the population standard deviation
