Question
The high temperatures (in degrees Fahrenheit) of a random
sample of 8 small towns are:
96.7
98.2
97.7
96.9
98.1
98.6
99.9
99.4
Assume high temperatures are normally distributed. Based
on this data, find the 98% confidence interval of the mean
high temperature of towns. Enter your answer as an open-
interval (i.e., parentheses) accurate to two decimal places
(because the sample data are reported accurate to one
decimal place).
98% C.I. =
Answer should be obtained without any preliminary
rounding. However, the critical value may be rounded to 3
decimal places.
