A local government official observes an increase in the number of individuals with cardiovascular and obesity problems in his barangay. In order to improve the health conditions of his constituents, he aims to promote an easy and cheap way to reduce weight. It is known that obesity results in greater risk of having illnesses like diabetes and heart problems. He encouraged his constituents to participate in his Dance for Life project every weekend for 3 months. To know if the program is effective in reducing weight, he randomly selected 12 participants from the group who completed the program. The weight loss data, in kilograms, of the 12 randomly selected participants after completing the program are: 0.5, 0.7, 0.9, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3,1.4, 2.0, 2.3, 2.4, 2.7, and 3.0. It is known that the weight loss of those who have completed the dance program follows a normal distribution with a variance of 3.24. Construct a 90% confidence interval estimate for the true mean weight loss of the participants who have completed the dance program.
