Overproduction of uric acid in the body can be an indication of cell breakdown. This may be an advance indication of illness such as gout, leukemia, or lymphoma. Over a period of months, an adult male patient has taken eight blood tests for uric acid. The mean concentration was = 3.5 mg/dl. The distribution of uric acid in healthy adult males can be assumed to be normal, with σ = 1.85 mg/dl.

-Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean concentration of uric acid in this patient's blood. What is the margin of error?

-What conditions are necessary for your calculations?

-Interpret results in the context of this problem.

-Sample Size Find the sample size necessary for a 95% confidence level with maximal margin of error E=1.10 for the mean concentration of uric acid in this patient's blood.
