    In between $23.3 and $32.7

    Explanation:

    standard deviation = $18

    sample mean = $28

    sample size = 40 students

    Significance level = 1 - confidence interval = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

    Using the confidence interval calculator

    90% Confidence Interval: $28 ± $4.68

    ($23.3 to $32.7)

    With 90% confidence the population mean is between 23.3 and 32.7 based on 40 samples."
