Naturally, you should use the t distribution to solve this question. However as the sample size is 141, there is very little difference if you were to use the z distribution, which I am going to use here. A 90% confidence interval for the population mean is = 106.9 +/- z(0.05) x s /[sq root (141)] = 106.9 +/- 1.645 x 68.2 /[sq root (141)] = (97.45, 116.35) |
