A study on machine productivity records the time to failure for 12 components, yielding a sample mean of xˉ=450\bar{x} = 450 hours and a sample standard deviation of s=30s = 30 hours. Calculate the lower bound of a 95% confidence interval for the population mean (assume tcrit2.201t_{crit} \approx 2.201 for df=11df=11).
