Math Problem Statement
The lifetime of a certain brand of electric lightbulb is known to have a standard deviation of 47 hours suppose that a random sample of 90 bulbs of this brand has a mean lifetime of 477 hours. Find a 90% confidence interval for the true mean lifetime of all lightbulbs of this brand then keep its lower limit and upper limit carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places around your answers to one decimal place.
