- Construct a 95% confidence interval for p1 - p2 for a survey that finds 30% of 240 males and 41% of 200 females are opposed to the death penalty. Group of answer choices a.(-0.200, -0.021) b.(-1.532, 1.342) c.(-1.324, 1.512) d.(-0.561, 0.651)A study investigated ways to prevent staph infections in surgery patients. The researchers examined a random sample of 100 patients admitted to various hospitals for surgery. They found that 53 of these patients tested positive for Staphylococcus aureus, a bacterium responsible for most staph infections. Construct a 80% confidence interval for the proportion of all patients admitted for surgery who are carriers of S. aureus. Round your answers to three decimal places, and use four decimal places for any interim calculations. We are 80% confident that the interval ( of all patients admitted for surgery who are carriers of S. aureus. contains the true population proportion psuppose that you take 1000 simple random samples from a population and that, for each sample, you obtain a 95% confidence interval for an unknown parameter. Approximately how many of those confidence intervals will continue the value of the unknown parameter?
- Males and females were asked what they would do if they received a $100 bill in the mail that was addressed to their neighbor, but had been incorrectly delivered to them. Of the 70 males sampled, 55 said yes they would return it to their neighbor. Of the 130 females sampled, 120 said yes. We want to construct a 90% confidence interval estimate for the difference between the true proportion of males who say they would return the money to their neighbor and the true proportion of females who say they would return the money to their neighbor. Choose the best option for the result of constructing that interval.

- Echinacea is widely used as an herbal remedy for the common cold, but does it work? In a double-blind experiment, healthy volunteers agreed to be exposed to common-cold-causing rhinovirus type 39 and have their symptoms monitored. The volunteers were randomly assigned to take either a placebo or an echinacea supplement daily for 5 days following viral exposure. Among the 103 subjects taking a placebo, 88 developed a cold, whereas 44 of the 48 subjects taking echinacea 1 developed a cold.A random sample of n₁ = 224 people who live in a city were selected and 90 identified as a "dog person."

They find the point estimate is 0.23. Each independently constructed a confidence interval based on the point estimate, but Jaime's interval has a lower bound of 0.220 and an upper bound of 0.234, while Mariya's interval has a lower bound of 0.169 and an upper bound of 0.272. Which interval is wrong? Why? 28 Choose the correct answer below. OA Jaime's interval is wrong because it does not include the point estimate. OB. Mariya's interval is wrong because it is too wide.
