The study involved measuring the facial width-to-height ratio (WHR) for each in a sample of 51 CEOS at publicly traded Fortune 500 firms. These WHR values (determined by computer analyzing a photo of the CEO's face) had a mean of x = 1.81 and a standard deviation of s = 0.12. Use this information to complete parts a and b below. a. Find and interpret a 90% confidence interval for u, the mean facial WHR for all CEOS at publicly traded Fortune 500 firms. (Round to three decimal places as needed.) O A.
