Is what I have here already correct? And how should I word the second part of the of the question?
Question #10 (two parts)
(21niog 01) CH noit29n
A food safety guideline is that the mercury in fish should be below 1.0 part per million
(ppm) in order for fish to be safe for consumption. Listed below are the amounts of
mercury (ppm) found in tuna sushi sampled at different grocery stores in a major city.

Assuming that the population is normally distributed, construct a 99% confidence interval
estimate of the mean amount of mercury in the population. Round to the thousandths
