Question 632893: The standard deviation of test scores on a certain achievement test is 11. A random sample of scores on this test had a mean of 70.5. Based on this sample, find a 90% confidence interval for the true mean of all scores. Then complete the table below.
-what is the lower limit of the 0% confidence interval?
-what is the upper limit of the 90% confidence interval?
I am stuck on how to find the standard normal variable. But need a step by step of the entire thing to help me understand. Thank you.
