Answer: ($143.69, $156.31)
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval to estimate population mean :

, where
= population standard deviation
n= sample size
Sample mean
z= critical value.
As per given,
n= 40
= $15.50
$150
Critical value for 99% confidence level = 2.576
Then, 99% confidence interval for the population mean:

Hence, the required confidence interval : ($143.69, $156.31)
So, 3 boxes x 10 markers=
30 markers/ 5=
6 markers each person will get.
1 man earns 810 / 12 = $67.5 in 10 days
by proportion 1 man will earn 0.8 * 67.5 = $54 in 8 days
So 14 men will earn 54 * 14 = $756 in 8 days.
