Answer:

(19229.11 ,20770.89)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

Sample size, n = 17

Sample mean = 20,000 pounds

Sample standard deviation = 1,500 pounds

Confidence level = 95%

Significance level = 5% = 0.05

95% Confidence interval:  

\bar{x} \pm t_{critical}\displaystyle\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}  

Putting the values, we get,  

t_{critical}\text{ at degree of freedom 16 and}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 2.119  

20000 \pm 2.119(\displaystyle\frac{1500}{\sqrt{17}} ) = 20000 \pm 770.89 = (19229.11 ,20770.89)
