LCL =
We have for given data,
Sample mean =15.5
Sample standard deviation =4.5031
Sample size =10
Level of significance= 0.014
Degree of freedom =9
t critical value is (by using t table)= 3.0408
Confidence interval formula is
=(11.17,19.83)
Lower confidence limit= 11.17
Upper confidence limit= 19.83
