In exercise 14.2 we saw that an SRS of 400 high school seniors gained an average of x? = 22 points in their second attempt at the SAT Mathematics exam. Assuming that the change in the score has a Normal distribution with standard deviation ? = 50, we compute a 95% confidence interval for the mean change in score µ in the population of all high school seniors.

Find a 90% confidence interval for µ based on this sample.

In a random sample of 600 U.S. high school students, 11% (or 66 out of 600) said they do not plan on having children.
