Question
A food safety guideline is that the mercury in fish should be below 1 part per million (ppm). Listed below are the amounts of mercury (ppm) found in tuna sushi sampled at different stores in a major city. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean amount of mercury in the population. Does it appear that there is too much mercury in tuna sushi?

Mercury levels (ppm): 0.56, 0.70, 0.11, 0.89, 1.35, 0.56, 0.93

What is the confidence interval estimate of the population mean μ?

\[ \Box \, \text{ppm} < \mu < \Box \, \text{ppm} \]

(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
