Solution:
Option a. (19.133, 23.067) is right answer
Explanation:
Given that
s = 4.21, n = 28, Mean x̅ = 21.1
df = n-1 = 28-1 = 27
Confidence interval = x̅ ± tα/2, df * s/√n
Level of significance α = 0.02
tα/2, df = Z0.01, 27 = 2.4727
Now CI = x̅ ± tα/2, df * s/√n
= 21.1 ± 2.4727 * 4.21/√28
= 21.1 ± 1.9673
= (19.133, 23.067)
The confidence interval :
19.133 < μ < 23.067
