(a) construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean µ.

(b) at the 0.05 level of significance, test whether the mean baseline body mass index for the population of middle-aged men who do develop diabetes is equal to 24.0 kg/m2, the mean for the population of men who do not. what is the p-value of the test?
