According to the Rule of Three, when we have a sample size n with x = 0 successes, we have 95% confidence that3the true population proportion has an upper bound ofn'a. If n independent trials result in no successes, why can't we find confidence interval limits by using the methodsdescribed in this section?b. If 40 couples use a method of gender selection and each couple has a baby girl, what is the 95% upper bound forp, the proportion of all babies who are boys?a. Choose the correct answer below.A. The requirement of dependent trials is not satisfied, so the normal distribution cannot be used.B. The requirement of at least 5 successes and at least 5 failures is not satisfied, so the normal distributioncannot be used.C. The requirement of at least 5 successes and at least 5 failures is not satisfied, so the binomial distributioncannot be used.D. The requirement of dependent trials is not satisfied, so the binomial distribution cannot be used.

Given, if there is a sample of size n with x=0 then the 95% confidence that the true population proportion has an upper bound of 3n. a). If n independent trails result in no successes, then we cannot find confidence interval limits by the given methods because the requirement of at least 5 successes and at least 5 failures is not satisfied, so the binomial distribution cannot be used.b). Let us consider the case of having boys in gender to be a success. Assume that there are 40 couples who use the method of gender selection and each couple found to have a baby girl. Therefore no. of couple n=40 and number of couples having baby boy x=0. Since there is no successes in 40 trials, therefore by the given method the upper bound for p, the proportion of all babies who are boys is given by 3n Therefore, the required 95% upper bound the proportion of all babies who are boys is obtained as- 3n=340=0.075

disproportionately often. In fact, research has shown that if you randomly draw a number from a very large data file, the probability of getting a number with "1" as the leading digit is about 0.301. Now suppose you are an auditor for a very large corporation. The revenue report involves millions of numbers in a large computer file. Let us say you took a random sample of n = 223 numerical entries from the file and r = 48 of the entries had a first nonzero digit of 1. Let p represent the population proportion of all numbers in the corporate file that have a first nonzero digit of 1.(i) Test the claim that p is less than 0.301. Use ? = 0.05. (a) What is the level of significance?State the null and alternate hypotheses. H0: p < 0.301; H1: p = 0.301H0: p = 0.301; H1: p > 0.301 H0: p = 0.301; H1: p < 0.301H0: p = 0.301; H1: p ≠ 0.301 (b) What sampling distribution will you use?

Ezekiel wants to use an interval from a sample based on z-scores to estimate the proportion of seniors in his school who have a smartphone. He takes a MORE of 20 out of the total 100 seniors and finds that 12 of those sampled have a smartphone. What conditions for constructing this confidence interval does Ezekiel's sample satisfy? Choose all the appropriate answers: The data is a random sample from the population of interest The observed scores of successes and failures are large enough Individual observations can be considered independent
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.

5.A random sample of 362 married couples found that 286 had two or more personality preferences in common. In another random sample of 550 married couples, it was found that only 30 had no preferences in common. Let p1 be the population proportion of all married couples who have two or more personality preferences in common. Let p2 be the population proportion of all married couples who have no personality preferences in common. Find a 90% confidence interval for p1 – p2. (Use 3 decimal places.) lower limit upper limit

Suppose a 95% confidence interval for the difference in test scores between Class 1 and Class 2 (in that order) is the following: 9 +/− 2. These results were based on independent samples of size 100 from each class. Now suppose you switch the order of Class 1 and Class 2 in your analysis but keep the data labeled correctly in terms of which class they came from. Which of the following statements is false? A) You can't do it this way. You'll get negative numbers for the difference in the means and/or negative numbers for the standard error. B) You are confident that the average for Class 2 is 7 to 11 points lower than for Class 1. C) You are still confident that the classes have significantly different mean scores. D) Your 95% confidence interval will now be entirely negative: from −7 to −11.
A researcher surveys a group of college students to determine the negative life events that they experienced in the past 5 years and their current feeling of well-being. For N = 18 participants with 2 or fewer negative experiences, the average well-being score was X = 42 with SS = 398. For the N = 16 participants with 5 to 10 negative experiences the average score is X = 48.6 with SS = 370. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the population means for the two groups.
