Answer:

[0.9 months, 32.69 months]

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is

\bf \bar x=\frac{5+17+12+21+29}{5}=16.8

The standard deviation is

\bf s=\sqrt{\frac{(5-16.8)^2+(17-16.8)^2+(12-16.8)^2+(21-16.8)^2+(29-16.8)^2}{5}}=8.1092

Now, we have to find two values a and b such that the area under the Normal curve with mean 16.8 and standard deviation 8.1092 between a and b equals <em>95% = 0.95 </em>

Using a spreadsheet we find these values are

a = 0.906

b = 32.694

<h3>(See picture) </h3>

and our 95% confidence interval for the mean number of months elapsed since the last visit to a dentist for the population of students participating in the program rounded to two decimal places is

[0.9 months, 32.69 months]
