Maggie goes to two different stores to shop for t-shirts. Both stores are having a sale. At Store A, t-shirts are regularly priced at $22 but are on sale for 25% off.
At Store B, t-shirts are regularly priced at $30 but are on sale for 45% off.
Which of the following is true about the sale price of a t-shirt at the two stores?

A. Store B has the better price because 45% is greater than 25%.

B. Store A has the better price because $22 is less than $30.

C. The sale price is the same for both stores.

D. The sale price cannot be determined.

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
