A public health official in Okeechobee county needs to estimate the average systolic blood pressure of all residents in Okeechobee county for a report that is being prepared for the Florida Department of Health.
The official randomly selected 66 Okeechobee county residents and found that the mean systolic blood pressure of the sample was 122 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg).
Using a 96% confidence level, determine the margin of error, E, and a confidence interval for the mean systolic blood pressure of all Okeechobee county residents. From past research, it is known that the standard deviation of the distribution of all Okeechobee county residents' systolic blood pressure is 9 mm Hg.
