Sam computed a 95% confidence interval for μ from a specific random sample. His confidence interval was 10.1 < μ < 12.2. He claims that the probability that μ is in this interval is 0.95. What is wrong with his claim?

A) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0 or 1.

B) The probability that μ is in this interval is 0.05.

C) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0.95 or 0.05.

D) A probability can not be assigned to the event of μ falling in this interval.
