Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the population mean using the data below. $\bar{x}$=36 σ=9 n=40 With 95% confidence, when n = 40 the population mean is between a lower limit of and an upper limit of . (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Step 1
Since we want a 95% confidence interval, $\alpha = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05$. Therefore, $\alpha/2 = 0.025$. Using a standard normal distribution table or calculator, we find that $z_{0.025} = 1.96$. Show more…
