A sample of 14 male college students consumes an average of 14.3 gallons of beer per month, with a sample standard deviation of 5.2 gallons. You can safely assume that the population of monthly beer consumption is Normally distributed. What is the margin of error for a 90% Confidence Interval for the mean? (Leave your answer to two decimal places, ex: 18.12)

Question

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.
