Suppose tnat the population of heights of all fully grown male West African giraffes is approximately normally distributed. A recent article published in the
Zoology Now journal claims that the mean of this population is 7.74 m. You want to test the daim made in the artide, so you select a random sample of 11 fully
grown male West African giraffes and record the height of each.
Follow the steps below to construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean of all heights of fully grown male West African giraffes. Then state
whether the confidence interval you construct contradicts the article's claim. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
(a) Click on "Take Sample" to see the results for your random sample.

Enter the values of the sample size, the point estimate of the mean, the sample standard deviation, and the critical value you need for your 90%
confidence interval. (Choose the correct critical value from the table of critical values provided.) When you are done, select "Compute".
