Physical sciences the earth is structured in layers crust


Question: Physical Sciences The Earth is structured in layers: crust, mantle, and core. A recent study was conducted to estimate the mean depth of the upper mantle in a specific farming region in California. Twenty-six sample sites were selected at random, and the depth to the upper mantle was measured using changes in seismic velocity and density. The summary statistics are x¯ = 127.5 km and σ = 21.3 km. Suppose the depth of the upper mantle is normally distributed. Find a 95% confidence interval for the true mean depth of the upper mantle in this farming region, and interpret your result.
