Question 613304: a sample of 64 statistics students at a small college had a mean mathematics ACT score of 28 with a standard deviation of 4. Estimate the mean mathematics ACT score for all statistice students at this college. Give the 95% confidence interval.
I have: E=2.4/64=8/64.64=0.125
95% confidence interval ranges from 28-0.25=27.75 to 28+0.25=28.25
27.75 scores

------
x-bar = 28
ME = 1.96*4/sqrt(64) = 0.98
----
95% CI: 28-0.98 < u < 28+0.98
