A group of 25 randomly selected students, from all MTH213 sections at Zayed University, has a sample mean score of 79 with a sample standard deviation of 5 on a Midterm Assume that the scores are normally distributed. (a) Construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean score, u, of all students taking the test? Round your answer to three decimal places. (b) Based on the 90% confidence interval in (a), is it reasonable that the population mean score is 75? Justify your answer.
