Hello, I put all my information in bold so far, Im working on a project for stats and I'm struggiling with everything on the project and feeling overwehlmed.   Select a parameter you are interested in studying               For example:                Proportion of students who wear red/white/turquoise on Fridays               Average number of days per week students wash their hair               Proportion of social media friends who update their status (post a pic) daily               Average test score on a particular test               A simulated experiment for a proportion or mean               Conduct a scientific experiment for a proportion or mean of your choosing.    Proportion of callers calling into renew their registration or drivers license and see if they are left or right handed over a span of 3 days and the first 30 callers.     2.Define your population and parameter of interest.   3.Background research with references.   4. Define your point estimate of the parameter.   5. State your question/hypothesis and outline your process. How many callers in the morning of each day will be left or right-handed? My prediction is the majority will be right handed.    6. Give a detailed explanation of how you will select your sample.               Your explanation should include the following:               What kind of sample will you gather? :The same was random from people who called into a local call center from the first 30 callers of the day over a span of 3 days               What will your sample size be? My sample size will be a total of 90 individuals.                     7.         Keep in mind the 10% condition, the conditions for normality of a                                               proportion.            8.   What margin of error will the confidence interval give you?               (Your explanation should be thorough enough that if I had a list of the          population, I could follow it and gather an equivalent random sample)   9. Present your sample data in both table and graph form.   10. State assumptions and check conditions to create a confidence interval.   11. State the confidence level and interpret in context.   12. Construct a confidence interval.  Show all calculations.   13. Conclude and interpret the confidence interval in context.   14. Discussion:  how do your sample size and method for choosing your sample affect the validity of your conclusion?  Is there anything else relevant to the validity of your conclusion?   15. Reflect:  What did you learn?  What went well?  What did not?  What might you do differently?

Question

Hello, I put all my information in bold so far, Im working on a project for stats and I'm struggiling with everything on the project and feeling overwehlmed.  

  1. Select a parameter you are interested in studying

              For example: 

              Proportion of students who wear red/white/turquoise on Fridays

              Average number of days per week students wash their hair

              Proportion of social media friends who update their status (post a pic) daily

              Average test score on a particular test

              A simulated experiment for a proportion or mean

              Conduct a scientific experiment for a proportion or mean of your choosing.

 

 Proportion of callers calling into renew their registration or drivers license and see if they are left or right handed over a span of 3 days and the first 30 callers.

 

 

2.Define your population and parameter of interest.

 

3.Background research with references.

 

4. Define your point estimate of the parameter.

 

5. State your question/hypothesis and outline your process.

How many callers in the morning of each day will be left or right-handed? My prediction is the majority will be right handed. 

 

6. Give a detailed explanation of how you will select your sample.

              Your explanation should include the following:

              What kind of sample will you gather? :The same was random from people who called into a local call center from the first 30 callers of the day over a span of 3 days

              What will your sample size be? My sample size will be a total of 90 individuals.

                    7.         Keep in mind the 10% condition, the conditions for normality of a                                               proportion.

           8.   What margin of error will the confidence interval give you?

              (Your explanation should be thorough enough that if I had a list of the          population, I could follow it and gather an equivalent random sample)

 

9. Present your sample data in both table and graph form.

 

10. State assumptions and check conditions to create a confidence interval.

 

11. State the confidence level and interpret in context.

 

12. Construct a confidence interval.  Show all calculations.

 

13. Conclude and interpret the confidence interval in context.

 

14. Discussion:  how do your sample size and method for choosing your sample affect the validity of your conclusion?  Is there anything else relevant to the validity of your conclusion?

 

15. Reflect:  What did you learn?  What went well?  What did not?  What might you do differently?
