I don't know the answer.

But, you need to show some of your effort before anyone else going to help you.
 
i tried using the eqautaion "Confiendnce interval on the mean, varaiance known" but i am not sure how to get the variance. thanks
 
Let [tex]\bar{x}[/tex] be the sample mean, what is [tex]\bar{x}[/tex]?
What is n, the sample size?
What is s, the sample standard deviation?
What distribution should you use(based on n)? Then find the 95% confidence interval.
