A researcher records the repair cost for 51 randomly selected dryers. A sample mean of $85.68 and standard deviation of $27.28 are subsequently computed. Determine the 99% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the dryers. Assume the population is normally distributed. Construct the 99% confidence interval. Round your answer to two decimal places.
