You can put this solution on YOUR website!
CI is mean +/- t (df, value)*s/sqrt(n)
\n" ); document.write( "for the first, it is 31 +/- t(df=31,0.95)*4/sqrt(31)
\n" ); document.write( "This is 31 +/- (1.70*4/sqrt(31))
\n" ); document.write( "That is 31+/-1.22
\n" ); document.write( "(29.78, 32.22) burglaries
\n" ); document.write( "=======================
\n" ); document.write( "second is done same way
\n" ); document.write( "CI is 8.6 +/-2.093*1.6/sqrt(20)
\n" ); document.write( "=8.6+/-0.75
