4. A new method for the determination of mercury in fish was tested against a N.I.S.T. standard to determine if there was any bias (determinate error) in the new technique. The N.I.S.T. standard fish sample was certified to contain 13.55 ppm Hg. The results of six analyses by the new method gave a mean value of 14.15 ppm and s.d. = 0.42 ppm. Does the new method give accurate results at the 95% confidence level?

A young researcher was evaluating a standard method for determining the methylmercury content in blue fin tuna using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). She determined the standard deviation (?)(s) for the method to be 0.440.44 ppb and assumed that ?s was a good approximation of ?σ . As a test, she used this method to evaluate the methylmercury content in a National Institutes of Standards and Technology (NIST) standard and determined the unknown amount to be within 0.210.21 ppb (?)(μ) of the known mean with 99% probability. How many replicate measurements of the NIST standard did the researcher perform?
