6.1 Activity 14: One Sample Confidence Intervals
Objective: The purpose of this activity is to practice the construction and interpretation of a confidence
interval from student collected data.
Topics covered:
1. One sample confidence interval for the population proportion
2. Independence of events
Suppose we would like to answer the following question: "If everyone made their own paper airplane,
what proportion of them would travel over 9 feet on their first flight?"
1. What would be your guess for the true proportion of paper airplanes that would travel over 9
feet on their first flight?
0-13
-13
メ - sah
-30%
%3D
2. Now, using a provided piece of paper, make your own paper airplane.
3. From your class, how many airplanes traveled over 9 feet on their first throw?
4. What is the sample proportion of airplanes that traveled over 9 feet on their first throw? What
do we use this value to estimate?
5. Compute the margin of error for a 95%) confidence interval for the true proportion of paper
airplanes that travel over 9 feet on their first flight.
