Carl conducted an experiment to determine if there is a difference in the mean body temperature between men and women. He found that the mean body temperature for a sample of 100 men was 91.1 with a population standard deviation of 0.52 and the mean body temperature for a sample of 100 women was 97.6 with a population standard deviation of 0.45.

Assuming the population of body temperatures for men and women is normally distributed, calculate the 98% confidence interval and the margin of error for the mean body temperature for both men and women. Explain what these numbers mean

Carl/Carla/Carlisle is an incompetent experimenter because he/she can't seem to count the number of people in the study.
