**Task Overview: Confidence Interval Estimation**

**Objective:** Refer to the accompanying data set and construct a 90% confidence interval estimate of the mean pulse rate for adult females. Then, do the same for adult males. Compare the results.

1. **Instructions:**
   - Use the provided data to calculate a 90% confidence interval for the mean pulse rate of adult females.
   - Complete the same calculation for adult males.
   - Analyze and compare the confidence intervals for both groups.

2. **Data Presentation:**
   - **Pulse Rates (beats per minute)**
     - **Males (n = 73):**
       - 55, 57, 62, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71
       - 72, 72, 73, 73, 74, 76, 77, 79, 80, 81
       - 82, 82, 83, 83, 84, 85, 86, 88, 90, 91
       - 92, 93, 94, 95, 97, 98, 99, 100

     - **Females (n = 86):**
       - 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61
       - 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71
       - 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80
       - 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90
       - 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100

3. **Analysis:**
   - Construct the confidence intervals using the sample data.
   - For additional accuracy, round results to one decimal place as needed.

**Note:** Ensure your final answer is well-documented, including the method of calculation, any assumptions made, and the final confidence interval estimates. After determining the confidence intervals, examine how
