Answer: [tex](10.1989,\ 11.0011)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Sample size : n=69
Sample mean : [tex]\overline{x}=10.6[/tex]
Standard deviation : [tex]s=1.7[/tex]
Significance level : [tex]\alpha:1-0.95=0.05[/tex]
Then , Critical value : [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.96[/tex]
The formula to confidence interval is given by : -
[tex]\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 10.6\pm (1.96)\dfrac{1.7}{\sqrt{69}}\\\\\approx10.6\pm0.4011=(10.6-0.4011,10.6+0.4011)=(10.1989,\ 11.0011)[/tex]
Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the number of chocolate chips per cookie for big chip cookies= [tex](10.1989,\ 11.0011)[/tex]
