Using the simple random sample of weights of women from a data​ set, we obtain these sample​ statistics: n=445 and x =151.09 lb. Research from other sources suggests that the population of weights of women has a standard deviation given by sigmaσequals=30.94 lb. a. Find the best point estimate of the mean weight of all women. b. Find a 95​% confidence interval estimate of the mean weight of all women.
