3 Fiona is studying the heights of corn plants on a farm.
She measures the height, \(x \mathrm {~cm}\), of a random sample of 200 corn plants on the farm.
The summarised results are as follows:
$$\sum x = 60255 \quad \text { and } \quad \sum ( x - \bar { x } ) ^ { 2 } = 995$$
Calculate a \(96 \%\) confidence interval for the population mean of heights of corn plants on the farm, giving your values to one decimal place.
