Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

The 99% confidence interval is $2.4309 < \mu < 4.9328$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The data is 3, 2,5, 3, 2, 6, 5,4.5, 3, 3, and 4

The sample size is n = 11

Generally the sample mean is mathematically represented as

$\= x = \frac{\sum x_i}{n}$

=> $\= x = \frac{3+ 2+5+ \cdots +4 }{11}$

=> $\= x = 3.6818$

Generally the sample standard deviation is mathematically represented as

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum [ x_i - \= x ] }{n} }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{[ 3 - 3.6818 ]^2 +[ 2 - 3.6818 ]^2 + \cdots + [ 4 - 3.6818 ]^2 }{11} }$

=> $\sigma = 1.3091$

Given that the confidence interval is 99% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

$\alpha= (100 - 99) \%$

=> $\alpha= 0.01$

Given that the sample size is small we will making use of t distribution table

Generally from the t distribution table the critical value of at a degree of freedom of is

$t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 10 } =3.16927267$

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = 3.16927267 * \frac{1.3091 }{\sqrt{11} }$

E = 1.251

Generally 99% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

3.6818 -1.251 < p < 3.6818 + 1.251

=> $2.4309 < \mu < 4.9328$
