We begin by restating the problem setup to ensure we’re considering the same interval construction as in the question.

The question shows a 95% confidence interval for the annual return with two dropdowns:
- Left endpoint options: -0.028, -0.0012, -0.0536
- Right endpoint options: 0.0536, 0.0524, 0.0792

Option analysis for the left endpoint:
- If the left endpoint is -0.028, the interval becomes (-0.028, [right endpoint]). This left bound is negative and moderate in magnitude, which is a plausible nonzero lower bound for an annual return interval and is consistent with typical estimates where the return can be negative but not extremely so on the lower side.
- If the left endpoint is -0.0012, the interval would start very close to zero. This would suggest an extremely tight lower tail and a narrower interval, which is less consistent with a “95%” confidence interval for an annual return that typically exhibits appreciable variability.
- If the left endpoint is -0.0536, the interval would start far more negative, implying a much wider spread downward. While possible in some datasets, this choice would generally produce a different interval width than is suggested by the provided correct pairing in the answer key, and it would not align with the supplied correct left bound in the key.

Option analysis for the right endpoint:
- If the right endpoint is 0.0536, pairing with a plausible left bound would yield a relatively narrow interval centered near zero, which is less likely for a typical annual return CI given the data context and the (correct) key suggesting a wider upper bound.
- If the right endpoint is 0.0524, this is slightly above zero but still a modest upper bound; combined with a reasonable left bound this could form a narrow interval, but again it does not match the provided correct right endpoint.
- If the right endpoint is 0.0792, this provides a noticeably positive upper bound, yielding a wider interval on the positive side. This aligns with the given answer key that pairs -0.028 with 0.0792 to form a relatively wide interval that captures a range of plausible annual returns.

Putting it together, the combination that matches the given answer key (left = -0.028 and right = 0.0792) forms an interval that is plausible in width and position for an annual return CI, accounting for both a modest negative lower bound and a substantial positive upper bound. The other left-end options (-0.0012, -0.0536) would produce intervals with notably different widths or central tendencies, and the other right-end options (0.0536, 0.0524) would yield narrower intervals or ones that do not align with the key’s indicated width.

In summary:
- Left endpoint analysis: -0.028 is the balanced mid-range negative bound among the options, while -0.0012 is too close to zero and -0.0536 is far too negative for the same interval width context.
- Right endpoint analysis: 0.0792 provides a wider upper bound that matches the key’s indicated interval width, whereas 0.0536 and 0.0524 would yield narrower upper bounds.

Therefore, the justified pairing to form the 95% confidence interval, given the options and the supplied answer key, is left = -0.028 and right = 0.0792.
