Answer: The sample mean salary of our sampled business majors= 60k .

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a confidence interval is give by :_

[tex](\overline{x}-E,\ \overline{x}+E)[/tex]       (i)

, where [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = Sample mean

E = margin of error

Given : A 95% confidence interval for the true mean salary of graduating business majors: (50k, 70k).

As compared to (1) , we have

[tex]\overline{x}-E=50k--------(1)\\\\ \overline{x}+E=70k-------(2)[/tex]

Add (1) and (2) , we get

[tex]2\overline{x}=120k\\\\\overline{x}=60 k[/tex]

The sample mean salary of our sampled business majors= 60k .
