    The answer to the question is given below in the explanation section

    Explanation:

    From the question we recall the following

    The mean: this is the the value at the center of the confidence interval which represents the quantity.

    let Z * denotes when building the confidence level

    ]The mean = 289000, n = 36, standard deviation = 1342

    Z * for 95% Confidence Interval = 1.96

    The margin of error = 1.96*[1342/√ (36) ] = 438.39

    The 95% Confidence Interval is given by:

    Lower CI = Mean - Margin of error = 289000 - 438.39 = 288561.61

    Upper CI = Mean + Margin of error = 289000 + 438.39 = 289438.39

    When the sample is decreased to 20 Tesla owners, the confidence interval widens.
