Show that the 95 percent fiducial limits for the mean of the
population are x ± to.05, where to.05, stands for the value of t at 5 percent
level of significance. Deduce that for a random sample of 16 values with
mean 41.5 inches and the sum of the squares of the deviations from the
mean 135 (inches)² and drawn from a normal population, 95 percent
fiducial limits for the mean of the population are 39.9 and 43-1 inches.
