Math Problem Statement
Consider the following random sample of diameter measurements (in inches) of 20 softballs. 4.69,4.83,4.89,4.77,4.81,4.71,4.87,4.77,4.71,4.7,4.72,4.83,4.86,4.85,4.82,4.72,4.85,4.75,4.7,4.86. If we assume that the diameter measurements are normally distributed, find a 99% confidence interval for the mean diameter of a softball. Give the lower limit and upper limit of the 99% confidence interval.
Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to two decimal places.
