Using the t-distribution to build the 99% confidence interval, it is found that:
- The margin of error is of 3.64.
- The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).
The confidence interval is:
In which:
is the sample mean.
- t is the critical value.
- n is the sample size.
- s is the standard deviation for the sample.
The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed 95% confidence interval, with 21 - 1 = 20 df, is t = 2.086.
The other parameters are given as follows:
The margin of error is given by:
Hence the bounds of the interval are:
The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

We know:
and
These expressions have an term in common. We can combine them if we can find forms of the expressions in terms of
:
Now, because (by the reflexive property), we can write:
