You measure 40 watermelons' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 78 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.8 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean watermelon weight. Give your answers as decimals, to two places
Here population standard deviation is known so we will use z distribution to find CI
z value for 95% CI is 1.96 as P(-1.96<z<1.96)=0.95
So Margin of Error is
Hence CI is
