Suppose that a random sample of 20 adult U.S. males has a mean height of 69 inches with a standard deviation of 2.5 inches. If we assume that the heights of
adult males in the U.S. are normally distributed, find a 95% confidence interval for the mean height of all U.S. males. Give the lower limit and upper limit of the
95% confidence interval.
Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to one decimal place. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
