Suppose you take 4 air quality samples in parts per million: 19.6, 1.88, 12.7, 11.9. Give a 90% confidence interval of the mean air quality? (Also, t(0.95,3) = 2.3534 and t(0.90,4)= 1.5332) (a) (3.45, 16.83) (b) (0, 25) (c) (2.93, 20.10) (d) (5.22, 21.54) (e) None of the above
Suppose an insurance company randomly surveyed 633 drivers and found that 601 claimed they always buckled up. Construct a 94% confidence interval for the fraction of all drivers who buckle up. p' = NR dje = Margin of Error: E = We are 94% confident that the fraction of drivers who always buckle up is between and
The ages of registered voters in Smith County are normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 3 years and an unknown population mean. A random sample of 18 voters is taken and results in a sample mean of 55 years.

The sample mean and standard deviation for weights of 100 boxes are 12.05g and 0.1g respectively. Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean weight of the boxes.
A school district decided to measure the BMI of all 3rd graders and identify the highest 1% and lowest 1% of those students. If the distribution is converted to a z distribution, what would be the upper critical z value and lower critical z value that mark the two significant areas at the tails?
3. The life in hours of a 75-watt light bulb is known to be normally distributed with σ = 25 hours. Arandom sample of 20 bulbs has a mean life of 1014 hours. Determine the lower limit of the 99%confidence interval on the mean life.
100 sheets are selected and the mean is 10.998 inches. Set up a 95% confidence interval for the population mean paper length. (a) Assuming computer paper is expected to have a standard devia- tion of 0.02 inch. (b) For a sampled data, the sample standard deviation is 0.12 inch.
A random sample was selected from a population having a normal distribution. Calculate a 90% confidence interval estimate for for each of the following situations: (a). = 134, n = 10, s = 3.1 (b). = 3,744, n = 120, s = 8.2 (c). = 40.5, n = 9, = 2.9
An NHANES report gives data for 647 women aged 20–29 years. The BMI of these 647 women was x= 25.8. On the basis of this sample, we want to estimate the BMI u in the population of all 20.6 million women in this age group. We treated these data as an SRS from a Normally distributed population with standard deviation o = 7.1. (a) Give three confidence intervals for the mcan BMI u in this population, using 90%, 95%, and 99% confidence. Enter the lower and upper bound for the 90% confidence interval.
