t*:
1. Find the appropriate degrees of freedom for the given sample size.
2. Find the approrpriate t* for the given confidence level and degrees of freedom.
Solution
Degrees of freedom is n-1
To find t* we use excel function tinv(0.1,df)
| n | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 | 
| df | 9 | 14 | 19 | 24 | 
| CI | 90% | 90% | 90% | 90% | 
| alpha | 10% | 10% | 10% | 10% | 
| t* | 1.83 | 1.76 | 1.73 | 1.71 |
