Answer:
3.4779

Explanation:

Given : Sample size :
n=10

Sample mean :
\overline{x}=73

Standard deviation :
\sigma =6

Significance level :
\alpha=1-0.99=0.01

Critical value :
t_(n-1,\alpha/2)=t_(9,0.005)=1.833

Formula to find the margin of error for population mean :-


t_(n-1,\alpha/2)(\sigma)/(√(n))\\\\=(1.833)(6)/(√(10))\\\\\approx3.4779

Hence, the margin of error if 99% confidence is 3.4779 .
