### Critical Values for Confidence Intervals - Educational Resource#### Critical Values for Quick Reference During This ActivityA table of critical values for various confidence levels is provided below to assist you in determining confidence intervals:| Confidence Level | Critical Value (z*) ||------------------|---------------------|| 0.90 | 1.645 || 0.95 | 1.960 || 0.99 | 2.576 |#### Example Problem:**Scenario:**In a poll of 1,000 randomly selected voters in a local election, 388 voters were against school bond measures.**Question:**What is the 99% confidence interval?**Instructions:**To find the 99% confidence interval, you will need to:1. Identify the critical value for the 99% confidence level from the provided table (z* = 2.576).2. Apply the appropriate statistical formula to calculate the confidence interval.**Interactive Element:**You'll be asked to input the smaller and larger values of the confidence interval in the format:\[ [\text{Ex: 0.123, Ex: 0.123}] \]Use the provided tools to input your answer and check if you've calculated it correctly:- **Check**: Verify your answer.- **Next**: Proceed to the following question.Remember to carefully apply the formulas and ensure calculations are correct to achieve an accurate interval estimate.

It is given that sample size (n) is 1000 and x is 388.

FIND Za, FOR THE 99.50 % CONFIDENCE INTERVAL
Likely voters were surveyed to determine if they would vote for their party's candidate. The voters were divided into 2 groups Republicans (group 1) and Democrats (group 2). A 95% confidence interval for pl-p2 was found to be as follows: (-015, .035) Interpret the endpoints of this interval in the context of this problem. Do not use the word "difference" in your answer.
A random sample of n1 278 people who live in a city were selected and 98 identified as a "dog person." A random sample of n2 = 109 people who live in a rural area were selected and 65 identified as a "dog person." Find the 90% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of people that live in a city who identify as a "dog person" and the proportion of people that live in a rural area who identify as a "dog person."

Which two of the following could be confidence intervals with the same sample? (0.45, 0.75) (0.4, 0.5) (0.35, 0.45) (0.3, 0.6)
You recently sent out a survey to determine if the percentage of adults who use social media has changed from 56%, which was the percentage of adults who used social media five years ago. Of the 2335 people who responded to survey, 1725 stated that they currently use social media.a) Use the data from this survey to construct a 93% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who use social media. Record the result below in the form of (#,#)(#,#). Round your final answer to four decimal places.
You recently sent out a survey to determine if the percentage of adults who use social media has changed from 62%, which was the percentage of adults who used social media five years ago. Of the 2283 people who responded to survey, 1635 stated that they currently use social media.a) Use the data from this survey to construct a 94% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who use social media.

You are given the sample mean and the population standard deviation. Use this information to construct the 90% and 95% confidence intervals for the population mean. Interpret the results and compare the widths of the confidence intervals. From a random sample of 75 dates, the mean record high daily temperature in a certain city has a mean of 82.23°F. Assume the population standard deviation is 14.04°F. The 90% confidence interval is ( ). (Round to two decimal places as needed.)
