A past survey of 1,068,000 students taking a standardized test revealed that 7.8% of the students were planning on studying engineering in college In a recent survey of 1,476,000 students taking the SAT, 9.2% of the students were planning to study engineering. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference betee proportions p- P2 by using the following inequality. Assume the samples are random and independent - (9-1) + (d- a) > d - td> The confidence interval is

b. In the year 2000, a survey of 1171 U.S. adults were asked who they felt was the greatest President. Of those surveyed, 397 reported that Abraham Lincoln was the greatest President. Use this data to construct a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of all U.S. adults who would say that Abraham Lincoln was the greatest president before the year 2000.

According to some car loan statistics, 44% of Americans are relying on an auto loan to pay for their cars. Assuming this finding to be based on a simple random sample of 1500 Americans, construct and interpret the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of Americans who have a car loan.
A political scientist claims that 38% of first-year college students characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road” as far as their political affiliation is concerned. Believing this claimed value is too high, you survey a random sample of 400 first-year college students and find that 120 characterize themselves as being “moderate” or “middle of the road.” Based on this information, what will the test statistic be? Choose the answer below that is closest to what you calculate, and try not to do a lot of rounding until you get to the very end of your calculations. 1. -0.3 2. -1.2 3. -2.6 4. -3.3 5. None of the other answer options are correct because the test statistic should be positive, not negative.
In a survey, 545 college students are randomly selected and asked whether or not they own a car. Of those surveyed, it is found that 210 own a car. Use this data to find a 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of all college students who own a car.
Most married couples have two or three personality preferences in common. A random sample of 362 married couples found that 138 had three preferences in common. Another random sample of 552 couples showed that 218 had two personality preferences in common.

A survey collected data on attitudes toward the quality of customer service in retail stores. The survey found that 270 of the 750 American adults sampled felt that customer service is better today than it was two years ago. We wish to develop a 94% confidence interval for the proportion of American adults who feel customer service is better today than it was two years ago. What is the population? A) the 750 American adults sampled B) customer service representatives C) all American adults
