You will be conducting a telephone survey of university students who are 21 years of age or older. You have determined that a sample size of 250 will allow reasonable precision and confidence for your estimates of important population parameters. Let’s assume that 15% of the telephone numbers aren’t working, 2% of students you contact are ineligible because they have working telephone numbers but have left the school, about 20% of students will refuse to participate, and you will be unable to reach 30% of those selected for the sample. How many sampling elements should you include in the project?

According to the website www.collegedrinkingprevention.gov, "About 25 percent of college students report academic consequences of their drinking including missing class, falling behind, doing poorly on exams or papers, and receiving lower grades overall." A statistics student is curious about drinking habits of students at his college. He wants to estimate the mean number of alcoholic drinks consumed each week by students at his college. He plans to use a 90% confidence interval. He surveys a random sample of 63 students. The sample mean is 3.7 alcoholic drinks per week. The sample standard deviation is 3.2 drinks. Construct the 90% confidence interval to estimate the average number of alcoholic drinks consumed each week by students at this college. 1. The t value is - 2. The standard error has a value of -- 3. The margin of error has a value of 4. Construct the 90% confidence interval to estimate the average number of alcoholic drinks consumed each week by students at this college.
