 What price do farmers get for the peach crops? in the third week of June, a random sample of 40 farming regions gave a sample mean of $6.88 per basket. assume that the standard deviation is known to be $1.92 per basket. find a 90% confidence interval for the population mean price per basket that farmers in this region get for their peach crop.
------------------------------------
sample mean = x-bar = 6.88
----
ME = 1.645*1.92/sqrt(40) = 0.4994
-----------
90% CI: 6.88-0.4994 < u < 6.88+0.4994
