Answer:
The correct option is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sample size(n)= 196
Sample mean = 12 ug/m³
Standard deviation (s)= 3.5 ug/m³
The formula for confidence interval is

Where,
is sample mean, s is sample standard deviation, n is sample size and z* is z-score at given confidence limit.
The value of z-score at 99.7% is 3.


![C.I=[12-0.75,12+0.75]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C.I%3D%5B12-0.75%2C12%2B0.75%5D)
![C.I=[11.25,12.75]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C.I%3D%5B11.25%2C12.75%5D)
The required solution is 11.25 ug/m³ - 12.75 ug/m³.
Therefore the correct option is A.
