Answer:


-0.223 \leq \mu_(sylver) -\mu_(Country) \leq 0.988

We can conclude that the difference between the two means are between -0.223 and 0.988.

And for this case the confidence interval contains the value of 0 so then we have enough evidence to conclude that we don't have significant difference between the means of Silver Queen and the Country Gentlemen.

Explanation:

-0.223 \leq \mu_(sylver) -\mu_(Country) \leq 0.988

We can conclude that the difference between the two means are between -0.223 and 0.988.
