Question 1159559: A random sample of 9 health maintenance organizations (HMOs) was selected. For each HMO, the co-payment (in dollars) for a doctor's office visit was recorded. The results are as follows:
10, 5, 12, 6, 12, 11, 6, 12, 10
Under the assumption that co-payment amounts are normally distributed, find a 90% confidence interval for the mean co-payment amount in dollars. Then complete the table below.
Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to one decimal place. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

You need the mean, the sd, the sample size.
the mean is 9.333
the sd for the sample is 2.872
the sample size is 9
90%CI is mean +/- t(0.95, df=9) s/sqrt(n)
the half-interval is 1.86*2.872/3=1.78
the 90% CI is ($7.55, $11.11)
