Answer #1

As confidence interval not specified, we assume it for 95%

n = 14

mean = 33.2

t-value of 95% CI = 2.1604

std. dev. = 8.3000

SE = std.dev./sqrt(n)

= 8.3/sqrt(14)

= 2.21827

ME = t*SE

= 2.1604*2.21827

= 4.79228

Lower Limit = Mean - ME = 33.2 - 4.79228 = 28.40772

Upper Limit = Mean + ME = 33.2 + 4.79228 = 37.99228

95% CI (28.4077 , 37.9923)
