18. Question: Suppose the scores of a standardized test are normally distributed. If the population standard deviation is 2 points, what minimum sample size is needed to be 90% confident that the sample mean is within 1 point of the true population mean? Be sure to round up to the nearest integer. 19. Question: The number of square feet per house are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 197 square feet and an unknown population mean. If a random sample of 25 houses is taken and results in a sample mean of 1820 square feet, find a 99% confidence interval for the population mean. Round to 2 decimal places
