<h3>What is a t-distribution confidence interval?</h3>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 90% confidence interval, with 76 - 1 = 75 df, is t = 1.9921.
The other parameters are given as follows:
.
Hence the bounds of the interval are:
