Complete question :

A zoologist is interested in whether climate affects how high kangaroos can jump. In a random sample of gray kangaroos from an Australian forest, he found the mean jump height was x¯=286 inches with a margin of error of 15 inches.

Construct a confidence interval for the mean jump height of gray kangaroos.

Answer:

(271, 301)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean (x¯) = 286

Margin of Error = 15 inches

The confidence interval :

(Mean - Margin of Error), (mean + margin of error)

(286 - 15), (286 + 15)

(271, 301)

Hence confidence interval equals : (271, 301)
