Question
Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population mean μμ. Find the 80% confidence interval for a sample of size 55 with a mean of 85.5 and a standard deviation of 21.5. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to 3 decimal places.
a. 80% C.I. =
The answer should be obtained without any preliminary rounding
