TopicHypothesis test of a normal distribution

1 The lengths of the leaves of a particular type of tree are normally distributed with mean \(\mu \mathrm { cm }\). The lengths, \(x \mathrm {~cm}\), of a random sample of 12 leaves of this type are recorded. The results are summarised as follows. $$\sum x = 91.2 \quad \sum x ^ { 2 } = 695.8$$ Find a 95\% confidence interval for \(\mu\).
