#23). Need help solving problem.

Transcribed Image Text:A normal resting heart rate for adults ranges from about 60 to 100 beats per minute (BPM). A doctor would
like to estimate the average heart rate for one of his patients. The doctor instructs his patient to measure
their resting heart rate twice a day for one week. The measurements are listed below. Assume that the
distribution of all heart rate measurements of this patient is approximately normally distributed.
