Je conclusie is correct maar je had volgens mij weer een beetje uitgebreider kunnen zijn. Je had bijvoorbeeld het 95%-betrouwbaarheidsinterval kunnen vermelden of iets dergelijks.

De conclusie is correct. Wanneer je deze berekening nog enkele keren zou uitvoeren zal je telkens ongeveer hetzelfde dalende patroon bekomen. De kans dat dit aan het toeval te wijten is, is dus zeer klein.
