The image contains the following text:"Suppose the goal is to estimate the parameter stated in question 3 using a 99% confidence interval with a margin of error no larger than 0.062. What is the minimum number of trick-or-treaters that would need to be selected to allow the calculation of a 99% confidence interval with a margin of error no larger than 0.062? It can be assumed for this problem only that the proportion of all people who went trick-or-treating who received fruit in addition to candy is 0.16 and this number can be used for this problem. **Which of the following is the correct answer?**- ○ 110.02- ○ 232- ○ 233- ○ 305- ○ 111- ○ 110- ○ 232.01- ○ 304- ○ 304.13[Buttons: Previous and Next]"There are no graphs or diagrams in the image. The content appears to be a multiple-choice question related to statistics, specifically focusing on calculating the sample size needed for a confidence interval.

Based on data from a survey of 1,300 randomly selected Facebook users, a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all Facebook users who say it is not OK to "friend" someone who reports to you at work is (0.60, 0.64). What is the meaning of the 95% confidence level associated with this interval? If a large number of random samples of size 1,300 were to be taken, % of the resulting confidence intervals would contain the true proportion of all Facebook users who would say it is to "friend" someone who reports to you at work.

Prehistoric pottery vessels are usually found as sherds (broken pieces) and are carefully reconstructed if enough sherds can be found. Information taken from a study provides data relating x = body diameter in centimeters and y = height in centimeters of prehistoric vessels reconstructed from sherds found at a prehistoric site. The following Minitab printout provides an analysis of the data. Predictor Coef SE Coef T P Constant -0.233 2.429 -0.09 0.929 Diameter 0.7948 0.1671 5.33 0.001 S = 4.10980 R-Sq = 80.3% (a) The standard error Se of the linear regression model is given in the printout as "S." What is the value of Se? (b) The standard error of the coefficient of the predictor variable is found under "SE Coef." Recall that the standard error for b is Se Σx2 − 1 n (Σx)2 . From the Minitab display, what is the value of the standard error for the slope b?
A district official intends to use the mean of a random sample of 150 sixth graders from a very large school district to estimate the mean score that all the sixth graders in the district would get if they took a certain arithmetic achievement test. If, based on experience, the official knows that = 9.4 for such data, suppose that the district official takes her sample and gets = 61.8. Use all the given information to construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean score of all the sixth graders in the district.
A random survey found that 220 out of 300 adults living in large cities (with populations of more than 1 million) wanted more state funding for public transportation. In small cities (with populations fewer than 100,000), 120 out 300 adults surveyed wanted more state funding. Call the population of adults living in large cities "Population 1" and the population of adults living in small cities "Population 2" while working these problems. With a 90% confidence level, what is the confidence interval for the difference in the population proportions? Give your answer to four decimal places.
One company recently conducted a survey in which 420 women and 420 men were asked "Are you satisfied with the work of the Minister of Health?". Of these, 155 men and 118 women said they were satisfied with the minister's work. Assume that the experimental design was correct. Questions 1 and 2 cover this survey. 1. Find the upper limit of 95% confidence interval for the difference in the proportion of men and women who are happy with the work of the Minister (let men be group 1). 1. 0.03. 2. 0.09. 3. 0.15. 4. It is not possible to apply a normal approach and therefore we can not calculate the confidence interval. 2. What is the rejection area if it is to be examined whether the proportion of men and women who are satisfied with the job of Prime Minister is different (use a = 0.05)? 1. RejectHO efz 1.96. 2. Reject HO if z> 1.64. 3. RejectHO efz> -1.96 or <1.96. 4. Insufficient information provided to answer this.
Here are summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls: nequals 235 , x overbar equals32.8 hg, sequals 7.9 hg. Construct a confidence interval estimate of the mean. Use a 99 % confidence level. Are these results very different from the confidence interval 29.7 hgless than muless than35.3 hg with only 15 sample values, x overbar equals32.5 hg, and sequals 3.6 hg? What is the confidence interval for the population mean mu ? nothing hgless than muless thannothing hg (Round to one decimal place as needed.) Are the results between the two confidence intervals very different? A. No, because each confidence interval contains the mean of the other confidence interval. B. Yes, because one confidence interval does not contain the mean of the other confidence interval. C. No, because the confidence interval limits are similar. D. Yes, because the confidence interval limits are not…
A researcher wants to estimate the true proportion of Americans who suffer side-effects after taking a particular medication. A 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of Americans who suffer side-effects after taking the particular medication was found to be (0.024, 0.160). If a hypothesis test is conducted with the hypotheses, H,: p = 0.10 vs H: p# 0.10 , what would be the most likely conclusion? Select one: a. There is very strong evidence that p 0.10. Ob. There is little to no evidence that p = 0.10. c. There is little to no evidence that p # 0.10. d. Cannot tell.
The standard error of most sample estimators approaches zero as the sample size increases, so almost any difference between the sample statistic and the hypothesized parameter value, no matter how tiny, will be significant if the sample size is large enough. Researchers who deal with large samples must expect “significant” effects, even when an effect is too slight to have any practical importance. Is an improvement of 0.2 mpg in fuel economy important to Toyota buyers? Is a 0.5 percent loss of market share important to Hertz? Is a laptop battery life increase of 15 minutes important to Dell customers? Such questions depend not so much on statistics as on a cost/benefit calculation. Since resources are always scarce, a dollar spent on a quality improvement always has an opportunity cost (the foregone alternative). If we spend money to make a certain product improvement, then some other project may have to be shelved. Since we can’t do everything, we must ask whether a proposed product…
If a sample of 35 employees had been selected, could we find a 95% confidence interval for the average salary of the entire company? O Yes because when I plug 35 into the calculator with the previous average of $55,000 and standard deviation of $5,000 I get a confidence interval of ($53,343.53, $56,656.47) No since 35 is less than 40.
