Question 1182682: Salaries of 48 college graduates who took a statistics course in college have a​ mean, x​, of $63,400. Assuming a standard​ deviation, σ​, of ​$17,348​, construct a 95​% confidence interval for estimating the population mean μ.
$__ < μ <​$__ (Round to the nearest integer as​ needed.)

half-interval is z(0.975)*sigma/sqrt(n)
=1.96*17348/sqrt(48)
=$4907.78
the interval is ($58,492, $68,308)
or $58492 < mu < $68308
