The 95% confidence interval for the mean weight per apple is;

CI = (119.14, 125.86)

The interpretation of the confidence interval above is that;

We are 95% sure that the correct mean weight per apple for all the apples they ship is between 119.14 and 125.86 grams per apple.

We are given;

Standard deviation; σ = 12

Sample size; n = 49

Indicated mean weight; x⁻ = 122.5

Now, formula for confidence interval is;

CI = x⁻ ± z(σ/√n)

At Confidence level of 95%, from tables, z = 1.96.

Thus;

CI = 122.5 ± 1.96(12/√49)

CI = 122.5 ± 3.36

CI = (122.5 - 3.36), (122.5 + 3.36)

CI = (119.14, 125.86)
