Question 1183033: using a 95% confidence interval, estimate the population mean given that the sample mean is equal to 1500,the sample variance is equal to 15625 and the sample size of 100

the half-interval is t(0.975, df=99)* sqrt (15625/100)
=1.984*sqrt(156.25)
=1.984*12.5
=24.8
1475.2 < mu < 1524.8
