A test for the level of potassium in the blood is not perfectly precise. Moreover, the actual level of potassium in a person's b

lood varies slightly from day to day. Suppose that repeated measurements for the same person on different days vary normally with sigma equals 0.02.

Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions.

Below is the solution:

(a) x bar = 3.
n = 1
std = 0.2
z value = 1.645

3 plus/minus 1.645 (0.2/(sqrt1))

Interval = [3.07, 3.73]
