One study presented 200 young American men with 100 images of men with various levels of muscle. Researchers measure level of muscle in kilograms per square meter (kg/m²) of fat-free body mass. Typical young men have about 20 kg/m². Each subject chose two images, one that represented his own level of body muscle and one that he thought represented "what women prefer." The mean gap between self-image and "what women prefer" was 2.35 kg/m². Suppose that the "muscle gap" in the population of all young men has a Normal distribution with standard deviation 2.5 kg/m² Give a 90% confidence interval for the mean amount of muscle think they should add to be attractive to women (Enter your answers rounded to four decimal places.) young 00 ible lower limit = 00 upper limit = 00 00 100 100 3 # E 80 DOD F4 $ 94 55 6 MacBook Air R T Y kg/m² kg/m²…arrow_forward
