American eat out very frequently; the average American adult buys a meal or snacks from a restaurant 5.8 time a week (The United State Healthful Food Council, December 5, 2015). Assume the standard deviation for the number of meals or snacks American adults buy from restaurants per week is 1.5. Suppose you would like to conduct a survey to develop a 95% confidence interval estimate of the number of meals or snacks American adults buy from restaurants per week. A margin of error of 0.5 is desired. Choose a sample size that would guarantee that the margin of error will not exceed 0.5? 25 35 20 10

A small business wanted to estimate the mean income from their customers. They took a sample of 256 customers which yielded a sample mean of $71,250 with a standard deviation of $5,800 . What is the 90% confidence interval estimate for the population mean income of their customers.
In a recent Zogby International Poll, nine of 48 respondents rated the likelihood of a terrorist attack in their community as “likely” or “very likely”. Use the “plus four” method to create a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of American adults who believe that a terrorist attack in their community is likely or very likely. Interpret your confidence interval.
A 90% confidence interval for a population mean is (10, 20). What is the margin of error of the interval?
You measure 33 textbooks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 62 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.6 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight
Several years ago, 44% of parents who had children in grades K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. A recent poll asked 1,075 parents who have children in grades K-12 if they were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. Of the 1,075 surveyed, 479 indicated that they were satisfied. Construct a 95% confidence interval to assess whether this represents evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Ho: p = 0.44 versus H,: p 0.44 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Use technology to find the 95% confidence interval. The lower is The upper bound is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
According to a poll, 81% of California adults (410 out of 506 surveyed) feel that education is one of the top issues facing California. We wish to construct a 90% confidence interval for the true proportion of California adults who feel that education is one of the top issues facing California.What is a point estimate for the true population proportion?

Several years ago, 45% of parents who had children in grades K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. A recent poll asked 1,025 parents who have children in grades K-12 if they were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. Of the 1,025 surveyed, 484 indicated that they were satisfied. Construct a 99% confidence interval to assess whether this represents evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed.
a critic points out that this 95 % confidence interval is only accurate if the statistic follows a normal distrubution , or if the normal model is a good approximation. is this true for this data? explain
