8. Sampling Distributions & Confidence Intervals: Proportion / Chi Square Distribution / Problem 3
Problem 3

The weights (in kg\(\text{kg}\)) of 88 randomly selected sealed sugar packs were recorded as follows:
1.0,1.2,0.9,1.1,1.0,0.8,1.3,1.11.0,1.2,0.9,1.1,1.0,0.8,1.3,1.1
Assuming the weights follow a normal distribution, construct a 99%99\% confidence interval for the population standard deviation (σσ). Also, interpret the results.
