Acid Rain Acid rain, caused by the reactionof certain air pollutants with rainwater, is a growingproblem in the United States. Pure rain falling throughclean air registers a pH value of 5.7 (pH is a measureof acidity: 0 is acid; 14 is alkaline). Suppose watersamples from 40 rainfalls are analyzed for pH, and x and s are equal to 3.7 and .5, respectively. Find a 99%confidence interval for the mean pH in rainfall andinterpret the interval. What assumption must be madefor the confidence interval to be valid?
