A certain ambulance service wants its average time to transport a patient to the hospital to be 10 minutes.
A random sample of 12 transports yielded a 95 percent confidence interval of 11.8 ± 1.6 minutes.
Is the claim that the ambulance service takes an average of 10 minutes to transport a patient to the hospital plausible based on the interval?

A) The claim is not plausible because 10 falls within the interval.

B) The claim is not plausible because 10 falls outside of the interval.

C) The claim is plausible because 10 falls within the interval.

D) The claim is plausible because 10 falls outside of the interval.

E) The claim is plausible because 10 falls within 0.95 units of the interval
