The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day. Assume that the population standard deviation is 1.5 gallons. The mean water usage per family was found to be 17.5 gallons per day for a sample of 543 families. Construct the 98% confidence interval for the mean usage of water. Round your answers to one decimal place.
The monthly amount of water used per household in a small community is normally distributed with mean 7,069 gallons and standard deviation 58 gallons. Find the three quartiles for the amount of water used.
