Answer:

The 99% confidence interval is  71.67 < \mu < 78.33

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The sample  size  is  n  =  15

      The  sample  mean is  \= x  =  75

        The  standard deviation is  s =  5

 Given that confidence is  99%  then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

              \alpha  =  100 -  99

             \alpha  =  1\%

             \alpha  =  0.01

Next we obtain the critical values of  \frac{ \alpha }{2} from the normal distribution table

   The  value is

                  Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 2.58

Generally the margin for error is mathematically represented as

            E =  Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } *  \frac{ s}{ \sqrt{n} }

=>         E =  2.58  *  \frac{ 5}{ \sqrt{15} }

=>         E =  3.3307

   The  99% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

             \= x  -E  <  \mu  <  \= x  +E

=>          75 -  3.3307 <  \mu

=>          71.67 < \mu < 78.33
