In a random sample of 6 residents of the state of Maine. the mean waste recycled per person per day was 1.3 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.45 pounds. Determine the 95 % confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Maine. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2: Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.
