Statistics Question: A random sample of the birth weights of 186 babies has a mean of 3103 grams and a standard deviation of 696 grams. These babies were born to mothers who did not use cocaine during their pregnancies. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean birth weight for all such babies.
