Question 319821
The mean diastolic blood pressure for a random sample of 60 people was 89 millimeters of mercury.
----
x-bar = 89
-------------------------------------------------
 
If the standard deviation of individual blood pressure readings is known to be 8 millimeters of mercury, find a 90% confidence interval for the true mean diastolic blood pressure of all people.
---
E = invT(0.95 with df = 59)*[8/sqrt(60)] = 1.6711*1.0328 = 1.7259
===============
90% CI: 89-1.7259 < u < 89+1.7259
---
90% CI: 67.2741 < u < 90.7259
=================================

Then complete the table below: 
What is the lower limit of the 90% confidence interval?
What is the upper limit of the 90% confidence interval?
