The interval is (13.97, 16,03).

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for estimating a popoulation mean through a confidence interval using Student's t-distribution is given by:

$\bar{x}\pm t_{n-1} \times s/\sqrt{n}$

Where:

$\bar{x}$ is the sample's mean,

$t_{n-1}$ is t-score with n-1 degrees of freedom,

is the standard error,

is the sample's size.

We have that:

$\bar{x}=15$

$t_{n-1}=2.12$ (found in the table which i've attached)

s=2

n=17

Now we can replace in the formula to obtain the confidence interval:

$\bar{x}\pm t_{n-1} \times s/\sqrt{n}=15\pm 2.12 \times 2/\sqrt{17}= (13.97, 16,03)$

Therefore we can conclude that the population's mean is estimated to be with 95% confidence within the interval (13.97, 16,03).
