A random sample of 42 graduates revealed worked 5.5 yrs
the sample standard deviation was 1.1 yrs
Using 99% degree of confidence, what is the confidence interval for the population mean.
------------------------------
x-bar = 5.5
---
ME = zs/sqrt(n) = 2.5758*1.1/sqrt(42) = 0.4372
-----------------
99% CI: 5.5-0.4372 < u < 5.5+0.4372
