For the next five questions (4-8) use the provided data to calculate a confidence interval, and then write one or two sentences explaining what your interval shows (interpret the results). Pay attention to the data provided to make sure you use to correct equation for your calculations. All confidence intervals should be calculated at the 95% confidence level. 7. A random sample of 100 patients treated in a program for alcoholism and drug dependency over the past 10 years was selected. It was determined that 53 of the patients had been readmitted to the program at least once. Construct a confidence interval estimate for the percent of the population of those from the treatment center who have been readmitted to the program.

If n=13, ¯xx¯(x-bar)=37, and s=9, construct a confidence interval at a 80% confidence level. Assume the data came from a normally distributed population. Give your answers to one decimal place.
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 99.5% confidence level.
Translate the statement into a confidence interval. Approximate the level of confidence. In a survey of 900 adults in a country, 80% think teaching is one of the most important jobs in the country today. The survey's margin of error is +3%. The confidence interval for the proportion is (OD (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Tina catches a 14-pound bass. She does not know the population mean or standard deviation. So she takes a sample of five friends and they say the last bass they caught was 9, 12, 13, 10, and 10 pounds. Find the t and calculate a 95% (α = .05) confidence interval.

Thelma and Louise are each attempting to estimate the proportion of adults who enjoy listening to country music. They each survey a different random sample of adults, and in each sample, the proportion who say they enjoy listening to country music is 0.29. Thelma and Louise each use their sample data to construct a confidence interval. Thelma's interval is from 0.242 to 0.338 and Louise's interval is from 0.237 to 0.323. One of these intervals was computed correctly and the other was not. Which interval must be the correct one? It's impossible to answer this question without knowing the level of confidence used for each interval. It's impossible to answer this question without knowing the sample sizes. O It's impossible to answer this question without knowing the sample sizes or the level of confidence used for each interval. Thelma's interval must be the correct interval. O Louise's interval must be the correct interval.
Statistics students surveyed 135 students at Tallahassee Community College. From their data we are 95% confident that between 44.7% and 61.9% of all TCC students are female. The students realize that this interval contains a large margin of error. What can they do to make a narrower interval? 1. Survey more students. 2. Use a 99% confidence level. 3. Survey more students and use a 99% confidence interval. 4. None of the other choices.

You want to create a confidence interval for the difference in the percent of people over 40 who took music lessons as children and the percent of people 20-40 who took music lessons as children. You decide to use the Plus Four method. You ask 30 people over 40 and find that 21 of them took music lessons as children. You ask 25 people 20-40 and find that 13 took music lessons as children. Fill in the blanks for what you would put into your calculator's interval function. Have people over 40 be group 1. X1 = n1 = X2 = n2 =
