A quality control engineer chooses a simple random sample of n =35 bottles of beer from a machine which fills bottles of beer. He records the number of ounces of beer in each bottle, and uses the data to calculate the 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean number of ounces of beer in all bottles filled by that machine.
