Answer:

CI(99%) = ( 0.93 , 2.07)

Therefore at 99% confidence interval (a,b) = ( 0.93 , 2.07)

Critical value z(at 99% confidence) = z(0.005) = 2.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean gain x = 1.5

Standard deviation r = 0.58

Number of samples n = 7

Confidence interval = 99%

Critical value z(at 99% confidence) = z((1-0.99)/2)

z(0.005) = 2.58

Substituting the values we have;

1.5+/-2.58(0.58/√7)

1.5+/-2.58(0.2192)

1.5+/-0.565536

1.5+/-0.57

= ( 0.93 , 2.07)

Therefore at 99% confidence interval (a,b) = ( 0.93 , 2.07)
