Over the past several months, an adult patient has been treated for tetany (severe muscle spasms). This condition is associated with an average total calcium level below 6 mg/dl. Recently, the patient's total calcium tests gave the following readings (in mg/dl). Assume that the population ofxvalues has an approximately normal distribution.

10.1

9.0

10.1

8.7

9.4

9.8

10.0

9.9

11.2

12.1

(a) Use a calculator with mean and sample standard deviation keys to find the sample mean readingand the sample standard deviations. (in mg/dl; round your answers to two decimal places.) mean = mg/dl s= mg/dl (b) Find a 99.9% confidence interval for the population mean of total calcium in this patient's blood. (in mg/dl; round your answer to two decimal places.) lower limit mg/dl upper limit mg/dl (c) Based on your results in part (b), do you think this patient still has a calcium deficiency? Explain.
