The histogram shows salaries (in thousands of dollars) of 61 players. That means the sample size n is 61.Denver Bronco Salaries confidence level is 99% with known$蟽=3342$.

The critical value is the border value which separates the sample statistics that are significantly high or low from those sample statistics that are not significant.

When the samples are randomly selected, the condition for t-distribution and normal distribution is as,

If $蟽$is not known and $n>30$ then t-distribution is suitable to find the confidence interval.

If $蟽$is known and$n>30$ then normal distribution is suitable to find the confidence interval.

In this case,$蟽$is known and $\text{n}=61$, which means n>30.So, normal distribution applies here.

The $z_{\frac{伪}{2}}$is a z score which separates an area of $\frac{伪}{2}$in the right tail of the standard normal distribution.

The confidence level 99% corresponds to $伪=0.01鈥�鈥�鈥�鈥�\text{and}鈥�鈥�鈥�鈥�\frac{伪}{2}=0.005$.

For critical value $z_{\frac{伪}{2}}$, the cumulative area to its left is $1-\frac{伪}{2}$.

Mathematically,

$$\begin{gathered} P\left(z<z_{\frac{伪}{2}}\right)=1-\frac{伪}{2} \\ =0.995 \end{gathered}$$

From the standard normal table, the area of 0.995 is observed corresponding intersection of the row value 2.5 and column value 0.08, which implies $z_{\frac{伪}{2}}$is 2.575.
