 Question 2 A random sample of 50 airline pilots had an average yearly income of $110,000 with a standard deviation of $10,000. 

1. If we want to determine a 90% confidence interval for the average yearly income, what is the value of t? 2. Develop a 90% confidence interval for the average yearly income of all pilots.
