[6.2 (±0.2) – 4.2 (±0.1)] / 9.43 (±0.05) =? 2) Why is the data reported below incorrect? Report the data correctly. 5.4359 M ± 0.00671 M In-class Exercises, Class 4 Name: _________________________ 1) For the following data set, calculate the 99% confidence interval. Sample Value 1 3.05410 2 2.98450 3 3.05120 4 2.99584 2) A standard reference material is certified to contain 94.6 ppm of an organic contaminant in soil. Your analysis gives values of 98.6, 98.4, 97.2, 94.6 and 96.2 (\(\bar{x}\) = 97.0, s = 1.65 5 ). Do your results differ from the expected result at the 95% confidence level? If you made one more measurement at 94.5, would your conclusion change (new \(\bar{x}\) = 96.5 83 , s = 1.79 8 )?
