Answer:

The confidence interval is 6.6<μ<6.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

Number of observations = 601

Mean = 6.7

Standard deviation σ = 1.5

The z-score for a 95% confidence interval is 1.96.

The limits of the confidence interval can be calculated as

X \pm z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\LL=X-z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=6.7-1.96*\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{601} } =6.7-0.1199=6.6\\\\UL=X+z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=6.7+1.96*\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{601} } =6.7+0.1199=6.8

The confidence interval is 6.6<μ<6.8.
