Answer:

a: 258.09

b: 178.88

Step-by-step explanation:

For a:  Since n > 30, we use a z-value that corresponds to 0.01, or 99% confidence.  This z-value is: 2.575

We have:

x = 265, n = 459, σ = 50.  See the calculation for the error and the construction of the confidence interval on the first attached photo

For b:  Since n > 30, we use a z-value that corresponds to 0.05, or 95% confidence.  This z-value is: 1.96

x = 180, n = 308, σ = 10  (it gives σ² = 100. so σ = 10).  See the calculation for the error and the construction of the confidence interval on the second attached photo
