FIND Za/2 FOR THE 86 % CONFIDENCE INTERVAL
You want to examine the effectiveness of a new tutoring program at SWC. A sample of n=9 stats students is used to evaluate t. Each students grade point average is recorded before the program and after the program. The average GPA improved by Mp=0.60 points with s^2 =0.09. the researcher would like to use the sample to estimate how much effect the workshop would have for the entire college population. Which of the following is the 80% confidence interval for these data? A. μD=0.60 + 0.10(1.397) B. μD=0.60 + 0.09(1.860) C. μD=0.60 + 0.01(1.397) D. μD =0.60 + 0.10(1.860)
An SRS of 29 students at HCC gave an average height of 5.5 feet and a standard deviation of .1 feet. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean height of students at HCC.
The 92% confidence interval for the true proportion of Lexus cars in Muscat city is 0.1<P<0.2. What was point estimate of the proportion and the sample size used to get this interval?
A researcher thinks that life time of light bulb has a normal distribution with mean of 3000 hours and variance of 50 hours. In order to construct 80 confidence interval for the mean life time of light bulb randomly selected 16 sample light bulbs mean value 2850 hours and sample variance is hours. Find the confidence interval. (use 2 decimal point)
The researcher recorded the amount of time each bird spent in the plain chamber during a 60-minute session. Suppose the study produced a mean of M = 51.38 minutes on the plain chamber with SS = 3898 for a sample of n = 14 birds. Construct the 90% confidence interval to estimate the mean amount of time spent on the plain side for the population of birds. Type only the upper interval by using Nearest hundredths place.
Estimate the average number of feathers that a mature tom turkey has with 90% confidence interval by using a sample of 32 turkeys that had a mean of 3450 feathers and a standard deviation of 25 feathers.
A car manufacture produces a new car that advertises an average of 30 MPG. The distribution of MPG of cars is normally distributed. The manufacturer will test 30 cars off the assembly line to find a confidence interval of the average MPG of their new vehicle to determine if it is close to 30. The average MPG of the 30 cars is 31.2 gallons with a standard deviation of 2 gallons. Find a 95% confidence interval for the average MPG of the new vehicle. (30.45, 31.95) (30.48, 31.92) O (31.18, 31.22) O The sample size is too small to compute a confidence interval.
Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean of city mileage (MPG) of all cars with a manual transmission. Assume that MPG of cars with a manual transmission follows a normal distribution. Also, provide an interpretation of the confidence interval in context. Here is my work so far Manual and Automatic Transmission Total # of Cars = 1129 Total # of Automatic Trans. = 877 Total # of Manual Trans. = 252 Average (Auto) = 18.97948 Average (Manual) = 20.69841 Standard Deviation (Auto) = 8.390146 Standard Deviation (Manual) = 8.565189 Automatic Min: 8 Q1: 15 Median: 18 Q3: 21 Mode: =MAX(B2:B878) = 126 Manual Min: 11 Q1: 18 Median: 20 Q3: 24 Mode: 31
According to statistics released by CNBC, the number of vehicles that are not insured is staggering. CNBC's sample results indicate that 44 out of 80 vehicles were uninsured. Give a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of the form p^ ± E where p^ is the point estimator of the proportion and E is the margin of error. Select one: a. The interval is 0.450 ± 0.109. b. The interval is 0.550 ± 0.143. c. The interval is 0.450 ± 0.091. d. The interval is 0.550 ± 0.091. e. The interval is 0.550 ± 0.109.
A marketing research company is estimating which of two soft drinks college students prefer. A random sample of 110 college students produced the following 95% confidence interval for the proportion of college students who prefer drink A: (0.228, 0.603). Identify the point estimate (p^p^) for estimating the true proportion of college students who prefer that drink. Round to the nearest thousandth.
The Aloha Taxi Cab Company of Honolulu, Hawaii, wants to estimate the mean life of tires on its cabs. A random sample of 15 tires from the cabs are found to have a life of 18,280 miles with sample standard deviation of 1,310 miles. Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean life of all such tires on Aloha Taxi Cabs.
