An accounting professor is notorious for being stingy in giving out good letter grades. In a large section of 105 students in the fall semester, she gave out only 4% A's, 20% B's, 40% C's, and 36% D's and F's. Assuming that this was a representative class, compute the 90% confidence interval of the probability of getting at least a B from this professor. (You may find it useful to reference the z table. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places. Round "z" value and final answers to 3 decimal places.) Confidence interval to

Elvin wants to know how the school views him as their leader. He asked his friend, Marcus, to research it. After a week, Marcus told him that a sample of 400 schoolmates selected at random indicated that 58% of them hold him in high regard. Determine the confidence interval at 60% confidence level.
You are interested in constructing a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all caterpillars that eventually become butterflies. Of the 427 randomly selected caterpillars observed, 45 lived to become butterflies. a. Use 3 decimal places to complete the following statement: With 90% confidence the proportion of all caterpillars that lived to become a butterfly is between and . b. If many groups of 427 randomly selected caterpillars were observed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of caterpillars that become butterflies and about percent will not contain the true population proportion.
In a survey funded by the UW school of medicine, 750 of 1000 adult Seattle residents said they did not believe they could come down with a sexually transmitted infection (STI). Construct a 95% confidence interval estimage of the proportion of adult Seattle residents who don't believe they can contract an STI. (Use a z score of 1.96 for your computations.)

The dean of students at a large college is interested in learning about their opinions regarding the percentage of first-year students who should be given parking privileges in the main lot. He sends out an email survey to all students about this issue. A large number of first-year students reply but very few sophomores, juniors, and seniors reply. Based on the responses he receives, he constructs a 90% confidence interval for the true proportion of students who believe first-year students should be given parking privileges in the main lot to be (0.71, 0.79). Which of the following may have an impact on the confidence interval, but is not accounted for by the margin of error? response bias O nonresponse bias O sampling variation O undercoverage bias

6. You buy a package of 122 Smarties and 19 of them are red. What is a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of red Smarties? (0.092, 0.220) (0.103, 0.230) (0.085, 0.199) (0.109.0.210) A. B. C. D.
You are interested in constructing a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all caterpillars that eventually become butterflies. Of the 424 randomly selected caterpillars observed, 50 lived to become butterflies. a. With 90% confidence the proportion of all caterpillars that lived to become a butterfly is between and . b. If many groups of 424 randomly selected caterpillars were observed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of caterpillars that become butterflies and about percent will not contain the true population proportion.
Suppose we randomly select n=2000 Douglas College students and we find that 205 of these students are left-handed. What is the 95% confidence interval for p= the proportion of left-handed students at Douglas? Fill in the blanks (round to three decimal places): We are 95% confident that p is between and .
