Suppose a researcher believes that the average height of female students in a large local high school is 140 cm. The researcher wants to construct an interval that contains the true average height of all female students in the local high school with a certain prespecified probability. The researcher selects 36 female students at random from the high school. The distribution of heights is known to follow a normal distribution. The given table shows the data she collected (in cm). 146 147 141 140 139 140 140 141 144 137 139 143 142 128 139 142 145 135 139 138 150 141 138 145 134 147 134 143 146 146 139 135 140 145 140 145 The average height of the female students in the given sample is 140.92 cm. The sample standard deviation is 4.50 cm. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) The standard error of the sample mean height is 0.75 cm. The margin of error in calculating a 95% confidence interval for the average height of all female students in the local high school is 1.52 cm. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

The mean amount of money spent on lunch per week for a sample of 105 students is $24. If the margin of error for the population mean with a 98% confidence interval is 1.10, construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean amount of money spent on lunch per week we’re all students
Congratulations, you just made a confidence interval! But wait, how did we decide on the width of the interval? The middle of the interval is the sample mean. We start there, and then the "wiggle room" we give on either side of that center is called the margin of error (MOE). There's a formula for margin of error: 0 MOE = 2* √T This formula consists of three values: o is the standard deviation, n is the sample size, and z is a multiplier that we choose based on the confidence level we need. Confidence levels are expressed as percentages, the most common are 90%, 95%, and 99%: * Confidence Z Level value 90% 1.645 95% 1.96 99% 2.576 Let's practice computing a margin of error. For our earlier example about houses, suppose the standard deviation was 14 years, and the sample size was 30. Use a confidence level of 95% and determine the margin of error: σ Remember, we'll use the formula MOE = 2* . First fill in the numbers for each part of the formula: √n = σ= n = Now put it all together,…

Decide if the following statement is true or false and explain your reasoning: Suppose you found a sample proportion p^p^and built a 95% and 99% confidence interval around it. If the the population proportion pp is in actually the 95% confidence interval, then it must also be in the 99% confidence interval.
