Question

13. Write a few sentences describing what you have learned about the mean length of the population of 268 words in the Gettysburg Address. Be sure to include an interpretation

of the margin of error.

Answer 1

You can obtain information about the mean population by taking a random sample of it and taking the average of that sample. The Law of big Numbers says that the bigger the sample, the more likely we will be closer to the real mean value. In other words, the margin of error is less likely to be big.
