Use the sample data and confidence level given below to complete parts (a) through (d). A drug is used to help prevent blood clots in certain patients. In clinical trials, among 4576 patients treated with the drug, 181 developed the adverse reaction of nausea. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adverse reactions.

What happens to the width of a confidence interval as the significance level, a, decreases?
Several years ago, 48% of parents who had children in grades K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. A recent poll asked 1,035 parents who have children in grades K-12 if they were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. Of the 1,035 surveyed, 497 indicated that they were satisfied. Construct a 90% confidence interval to assess whether this represents evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? HP versus H₁: p (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Use technology to find the 90% confidence interval. The lower bound is The upper bound is (Round to two decimal places as needed.) What is the correct conclusion? OA. Since the interval contains the proportion stated in the null hypothesis, there is sufficient evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed. OB. Since the interval does not contain the proportion stated in the…

We have developed a new drug used to reduce fever and want to test its efficacy. Ten ER patients who are running a fever agree to take the new drug instead of the traditional treatment. Their temperatures are taken before the drug is administered and 30 minutes after taking the drug. The results are recorded in the Excel file below. Use the data to construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the mean change in temperatures of patients after taking this drug using Excel. Be sure to include any explanation necessary along with a sentence that explains what the interval means.

In a poll, 1100 adults in a region were asked about their online vs. in-store clothes shopping. One finding was that 44% of respondents never clothes-shop online. Find and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adults in the region who never clothes-shop online.

K Do freshmen spend significantly more time on social media than other class ranks? A recent study investigated the amount of time per day freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors spent on social media while doing schoolwork. The students surveyed were U.S. residents from a 4-year, public, primarily residential institution. The accompanying computer output shows the mean time each cohort spent on social media and an ANOVA table. Construct a 95% confidence interval to compare the population mean time spent per day on social media between freshmen and seniors. Click the icon to view the summary statistics and ANOVA table.

A learn-to-type software program claims that it can improve your typing skills. To test the claim and possibly help yourself out, you and six of your friends decide to try the program and see what happens. Use the table below to construct an 80% confidence interval for the true mean change in the typing speeds for people who have completed the typing program. Let Population 1 be the typing speed before taking the program and Population 2 be the typing speed after taking the program. Round the endpoints of the interval to one decimal place, if necessary.

A statistician changes her level of significance from .001 to .05. What impact will this change have on her risk of making a Type I and Type II error? Is the change in the level of significance a good decision? Why or why not?
I chose Option 1 for this week’s discussion post. I want to estimate the population mean number of times adults between the ages of 30 and 45 went to the grocery store in the last week. I spoke with 12 adults and asked them how many times they went to the grocery store in the last week. The results were 0, 2, 2, 7, 5, 1, 0, 3, 1, 1, 4, and 3. Now calculate a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. (Round to three decimal places)
