Question 713391: Fat contents (in percentage) for 10 randomly selected hot dogs were given in the article "Sensory and Mechanical Assessment of the Quality of Frankfurters". Use the following data to construct a 99% confidence interval for the true mean fat percentage of hot dogs:
Note: you should carry at least 5 decimal precision for any intermediate calculations then round your answer as indicated in the problem
25.4,21.5,23.0,17.5,30.0,21.2,25.7,16.4,21.3,19.9
This is what I know but not sure how I get the rest of the answer.
Sample mean= 22.2, s=4.0, n=10
C) t-crit =
Note: round this answer to 2 decimal place precision
D) Low: % to High: %
Note: round these endpoints to 1 decimal place precision
I can't figure out the rest can anyone walk me step by step

This is what I know but not sure how I get the rest of the answer.
Sample mean= 22.2, s=4.0, n=10
-------
x-bar = 22.2
C) t-crit = |invNorm(0.005| = 2.5758
E = t*s/sqrt(n)
E = 2.5758*4/sqrt(10) = 3.2582
----------------
99% CI: 22.2-3.2582 < u < 22.2+3.2582
99% CI: 18.94 < u < 25.46
