Cholesterol, continued Refer to Exercise 10.16. Since n > 30, use the methods of Chapter 8 to create a large-sample 95% confidence interval for the average serum cholesterol level for L.A. County employees. Compare the two intervals. (HINT: The two intervals should be quite similar. This is the reason we choose to approximate the sample
