A study of the annual growth of certain cacti showed that 64 of them, selected at random in a desert region, grew on the average 52.80 mm with a standard deviation of 4.5 mm. Use the large-sample confidence-interval formula to construct a 99% confidence interval for the standard deviation of the annual growth of the given kind of cactus.
