The commute times for the workers in a city are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. If a random sample of 27 workers is taken and results in a sample mean of 22 minutes and sample deviation of 3 minutes, find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution.
