Problem 11

A researcher collects a simple random sample of waiting times in minutes for a popular amusement park ride. A confidence level of 95%95\% was used. The researcher used a calculator for analysis, as shown in the figure.
Confidence interval (33.49, 37.41), mean 35.45, standard deviation 6.13, sample size 40.
At the confidence level of 95%95\%, what is the critical value tα2t_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}?
