Assume you need to build a confidence interval for a population mean within some given situation. Naturally, you must determine whether you should use either the t-distribution or the z-distribution or possibly even neither based upon the information known/collected in the situation. Thus, based upon the given information for each situation below, determine which distribution (t-, z- or neither) is appropriate. Then if you can use either a t- or z- distribution, give the associated critical value (critical t- or z- score) from that distribution to reach the given confidence level.
