A Single Population Mean Using the Normal Distribution · Exercise 18

A sample of 20 heads of lettuce was selected. Assume that the population distribution of head weight is normal. The weight of each head of lettuce was then recorded. The mean weight was 2.2 lb, with a standard deviation of 0.1 lb. The population standard deviation is known to be 0.2 lb.

Construct a 95 percent confidence interval for the population mean weight of the heads of lettuce. State the confidence interval, sketch the graph, and calculate the error bound.

Its source prints no answer for this problem, so there's nothing to check against.
