T-Confidence Interval Calculator

T-Confidence Interval Calculator

Enter the sample mean, sample standard deviation, sample size, and confidence level to calculate the t confidence interval.

* Note: The t confidence interval is used when the population standard deviation is unknown.

Step 1: Enter Parameters

e.g., 0

e.g., 1

e.g., 30

e.g., 95 for 95% confidence

How It Works

The t confidence interval for the mean is calculated as: $$ \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2, \, n-1} \cdot \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}, $$ where \( t_{\alpha/2, \, n-1} \) is the critical value from the Student’s t-distribution with \( n-1 \) degrees of freedom.

This interval is used when the population standard deviation is unknown.

Formula: \( \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2, \, n-1} \cdot \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} \)
