Point EstimatesPoint Estimates
A point estimatepoint estimate is a single number determined from a sample that is used to estimate the corresponding population parameter.

Confidence IntervalsConfidence Intervals
Confidence IntervalConfidence Interval Developed from a sample. Provides a range of likely values for a parameter.Expresses the confidence level that the true population parameter is included.

Confidence IntervalsConfidence Intervals
The confidence levelconfidence level refers to a percentage greater than 50 and less than 100. For a given size sample it is the percentage that the interval will contain the true population value.

Margin of ErrorMargin of Error
The margin of errormargin of error is the largest possible sampling error at the specified level of confidence.

Student’s t-DistributionStudent’s t-Distribution
The t-distributiont-distribution is a family of distributions:Bell-shaped and symmetric Greater area in the tails than the normal.Defined by its degrees of freedom. The t-distribution approaches the normal distribution as the degrees of freedom increase.
