Hi
entering the data in an Excel Cloumn and used the stat tool found: = 2.623423897 and mean = 15
ME = 1.96*2.6234/sqrt(35) = 5.9161
CI: 15-5.9161 < u < 15+ 5.9161
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the mean :
11 12 13 13 14 14 14........91
15 17 16 16 17 17 16..........114
15 15 18 19 16 16 18..........117
17 17 18 17 16 16 16..........117
15 9 10 18 14 11 9..................86
......the mean is
The is
Find the standard deviation of using this formula first:
subtract the mean individually from each of the numbers in the question and square the result.

x 15 17 16 16 17 17 16
(15 - x)² 0 4 1 4 4 4 1.............18

(15 - x)² 0 0 9 16 1 1 9.............36
