Math Problem Statement
Archeologists have studied sizes of Egyptian skulls in an attempt to determine whether breeding occurred between different cultures. Listed below are the widths (mm) of skulls from 150 A.D. Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean skull width. 127.9 137.6 126.4 132.3 143.2 135.1 138.9 128.6
