Explanation / Answer

Answer

Answer to first two fill in the blanks is correct.

only incorrect answer is for the 95% confidence interval

It is clearly mentioned in the question that we have to use approximate 2SDs above and below the average.

so, we get

Upper limit = Average + 2SD = 64500 + (2*32500) = 129500

and

Lower limit = Average - 2SD = 64500 - (2*32500) = - 500

so, 95% confidence interval is (-500, 129500)
