(a) A 100(1 − ?)% confidence interval for the mean ? of a normal population when the value of ? is known is given by x − z?/2 · ? n , x + z?/2 · ? n . Under the same conditions as those leading to the interval, P (X − ?) ? √n < 1.645 = 0.95. Use this to derive a one-sided interval for ? that has infinite width and provides a lower confidence bound on ?. x − 1.645 ? n , ∞ ∞, x + 1.645 ? n ∞, x − 1.645 ? n x + 1.645 ? n , ∞ x − 1.645 ? n , ∞ What is this interval for the true average porosity of a certain seam of coal samples that is normally distributed with true standard deviation 0.79 if the average porosity for 20 specimens from the seam was 4.85?

From a sample of 200 of a grocery store's customers, 30% visit the store at least once per week. The proportion of all customers who visit the store at least once per week, based upon a 95% confidence interval, would be 30% ± ________% (answer as a percentage rounded to two decimal spaces)
According to statistics published by CNBC, the amount they are insured is surprising. CNBC's sample results indicate that 57 out of 84 vehicles were uninsured. Give a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of the form p ± E where p is the point estimator of the proportion and E is the margin of error. Select one: a. The interval is 0.321 ± 0.100. b. The interval is 0.321 ± 0.084. c. The interval is 0.679 ± 0.100. d. The interval is 0.679 ± 0.131. e. The interval is 0.679 ± 0.084.
In anticipation of an upcoming election, officials in Grand Ridge County are looking at the distance from each voter's horne to that voter's nearest polling station. Assume that the population of all such distances for voters in Grand Ridge County is approximately normally distributed. An artide for the newspaper Politically Sound claimed that the mean of this population is 5.19 km. You want to test this claim, so you select a random sample of 25 Grand Ridge County voters, and for each you record the distance the voter lives from their nearest polling station. Follow the steps below to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean of all the distances voters in Grand Ridge County live from their nearest polling station. Then state whether the confidence interval you construct contradidcts the reporter's daim. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Click on "Take Sample" to see the results for your random sample. Sample standard deviation Number of people Sample…
Based on data from a survey of 1,300 randomly selected Facebook users, a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all Facebook users who say it is not OK to "friend" someone who reports to you at work is (0.60, 0.64). What is the meaning of the 95% confidence level associated with this interval? If a large number of random samples of size 1,300 were to be taken, % of the resulting confidence intervals would contain the true proportion of all Facebook users who would say it is to "friend" someone who reports to you at work.

In a survey of 2025 adults in a recent year, 711 made a New Year's resolution to eat healthier. Construct 90% and 95% confidence intervals for the population proportion. Interpret the results and compare the widths of the confidence intervals. The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion p is (.334 , .369 (Round to three decimal places as needed.) The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion p is ( ) (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
In a recent poll, 300 people were randomly sampled, and 90% said they liked dogs. Use the Theory-Based Inference applet to find a 95% confidence interval for the true population proportion of people who like dogs, T. (a) We are 95% confident that the proportion of all people who like dogs is between 9 % and % Give your percentage answers rounded to one decimal place. For example, if the applet gives (0.34218, 0.61352) then you would enter 34.2 and 61.4. (b) The sample statistic is 0.9 Give your answer as a dEnter an integer or decimal number [more.Jo not round. (c) The margin of error is 0.024 Give your answer as a decimal using your answers form parts (a) and (b). (d) The confidence interval from part (c) can be written as ± Give your answers as decimals (NOT percentages), and do not round.
