3. (40 points) Water Supplies Department tests the drinking water of homeowners for
contaminants such as zinc and iron. The zinc and iron levels in water specimens collected for a
sample of 11 residents are shown in the following table. Assume that both zinc and iron levels in
water specimens are normally distributed. (a) Construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean
zinc level in water specimens.(b) Suppose that population standard deviation of iron level is 0.24
mg/L. i. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean iron level in water specimens.ii. For
quality control purposes, we wish to estimate the mean iron level in water specimens to be within
0.025mg/L of its true value with a 98% confidence interval. What sample size should be used?(d)
How many additional samples are required to ensure that, with 0.98 probaility, the absolute
difference between the sample proportion for water specimens containing more than 0.30mg/L of
iron and the population proportion for water specimens containing more than 0.30mg/L of iron is
less than 0.01 ?(c) Develop an approximate 90% confidence interval for the proportion of water
specimens containing more than 0.30mg/L of iron.
