    A. the value of 135 because it is not greater than 136.5

    anything below 136.5 or above 155.5

    Step-by-step explanation:

    the critical value from a Z distribution for the 99% confidence level is 2.576

    so we just need to compute

    146 + 2.576 (34/sqrt (85))

    and

    146 + 2.576 (34/sqrt (85))
