(a) Use this equation to derive a more general expression for a 100(1-a) % CI for μ of which the interval below is a special case. (x-² 1/2 √n' x + ²a/2 x+ 0(X-Z₁₂X+²₁₂) az n √) o O(x-²4₂ √n-1' •₁ X + ² α₁ ² √² VF) 0(X-2₁₂X+²₁₂) n-1 0(X-Z₂X+²₁₂) 0(X-2₂₁X+²₁₂) √) (b) Let a = 0.05 and a₁ = α/4, α₂ = 3a/4. Does this result in a narrower or wider interval than the interval in part (a)? O The interval is narrower. O The interval is wider. O The interval does not change.
