t is known that the mean weight of all items sent through LSUHSC's campus mail system is 30 grams. A random sample of 25 campus mail items received by the School of Public Health had an average weight of 36 grams with a sample standard deviation of 16 grams. Construct the appropriate two-sided CI for the mean weight of mail received by the School of Public Health.
t critical value at 0.05 level with 24 df = 2.064
95% confidence interval for is
- t * S / sqrt(n) < < + t * S / sqrt(n)
36 - 2.064 * 16 / sqrt(25) < < 36 + 2.064 * 16 / sqrt(25)
29.40 < < 42.60
95% CI is ( 29.40 , 42.60 )
