Question

Hoaglin, Mosteller, and Tukey (1983) presented data on blood levels of beta-endorphin as a function of stress. They took beta-endorphin levels for 19 patients 12 hours before surgery and again 10 minutes before surgery.  The data are presented below, in fmol/ml

Given that the confidence intervals on beta-endorphine changes are 2.906 less than or equal to mu less than or equal to 12.494

How do you solve for the confidence intervals when given the correct answer?
