Using a t-distribution calculator, it is found that the critical value of t* for a 98% confidence interval with 25 observations is given by:
B. t* = 2.492
How to find the critical value of the t-distribution?
It is found using a calculator, with two inputs, which are given by:
- The number of degrees of freedom, which is one less than the sample size.
In this problem, we have a confidence level of 98% and 25 - 1 = 24 df, hence the critical value is of t* = 2.492, which means that option B is correct.
