In a random sample of ten people, the mean driving distance to work was 19.5 miles and the standard deviation was 7.3 miles. Assume the population is normally distributed and use the t-distribution to find the margin of error and construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean μ. Interpret the results.

Features Features Normal distribution is characterized by two parameters, mean (µ) and standard deviation (σ). When graphed, the mean represents the center of the bell curve and the graph is perfectly symmetric about the center. The mean, median, and mode are all equal for a normal distribution. The standard deviation measures the data's spread from the center. The higher the standard deviation, the more the data is spread out and the flatter the bell curve looks. Variance is another commonly used measure of the spread of the distribution and is equal to the square of the standard deviation.
