You believe the population is normally distributed. Find the 99% confidence interval. Enter your
answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to twp decimal places (because the sample
data are reported accurate to one decimal place).
99% C.I. =
Answer should be obtained without any preliminary rounding. However, the critical value may be
rounded to 3 decimal places.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/17bc6931-57e3-4940-9198-f90e182ec7ca/ea4ff8bf-a6f8-4cf3-9dca-a73c9d1bf831/bliut9_thumbnail.jpeg)
