Misc
(a) What happens to the width of the CI when
i. n increases ii. Confidence level increases?
(b) Are assumptions for Normal approximation for the proportion CI
satistied when
i. n = 100, P = 0.2
ii. n=300, P=0.01?
(c) For a sample of 36 bags of M&M's, a 95% confidence interval for
=the average number of M&M's per bag was found as [23.6; 24.8].
Circle all that apply:
i. The sample mean was 24.0
ii. we are 95% sure that
μ
will belong to the above interval
iii. for 95% of all M&M's bags the number of candies in a bag will
belong to the above interval
iv. the population mean m cannot be above 25
v. the C.I. was computed incorrectly because both numbers are
fractions
