ch9 q 13 s2

Step 2
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean will have the following form.
Xa (t critical value)
The study was made up of 65 students with sample mean and standard deviation given to be 35.8 and 6.38, respectively, so we haven = 65,
x = 35.8, and s = 6.38.
The t critical value is based on n - 1 = 64 degrees of freedom and can be found from the table excerpt below.

Since there is not a row for 64 degrees of freedom, we will use the row for the closest degrees of freedom,
critical value will be found by moving along this row until reaching the column for the desired confidence level, 95%. Thus, the neededt
