Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean time spenton the web site.
a) What is the lower limit of the 95% interval? Give your answerto three decimal places. Enter 0 if your lower limit is less than0.
b) What is the upper limit of the 95% interval? Give your answerto three decimal places.
