A manufacturer of salad dressings uses machines to dispense liquid ingredients into bottles that move along a filling line. The machine that dispenses dressings is working properly when 8 ounces are dispensed. The standard deviation of the process is 0.15 ounces. Suppose that the average amount dispensed in a particular sample of 50 bottles is 7.952 ounces. Develop a 99 confidence interval around this sample mean.
