The ages at which all the presidents of a country were elected
The mean age of the 43 presidents of the United States (as of 2011 ) on the day of inauguration is 54.6 years, with a standard deviation of 6.3 years. A researcher constructed a $95 \%$ confidence interval for the mean age of presidents on inauguration day. He wrote that he was $95 \%$ confident that the mean age of the president on inauguration day is between 52.7 and 56.5 years of age. Is there anything wrong with the researcher's analysis? Explain.
