Chapter 10.2, Problem 27MS
Bag for life. An insurance company estimates that an air bag in a car reduces driver deaths at a rate of 1.4 deaths for every 100 million miles driven. Suppose the average car is driven 100,000 miles. Calculate the probability that an airbag in such a car would save a life. If that airbag cost $400, calculate the cost per life saved.

- One estimate of the proportion of children with autism in the United States is 1 in 100 (Source: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/10/05/health/main5363192.shtml). Suppose you are interested in the rate of autism among current school-aged children in Utah. You collect a sample of 400 children between the ages of 5 and 18 and find that three have had a previous diagnosis of an autism disorder. You plan to calculate a 95% confidence interval estimator of the proportion of school-aged children in Utah who have ever had a diagnosis of an autism disorder. Which of the following is the most likely reason you would use a Wilson estimator to calculate the confidence interval estimator? It is uncomfortable to define having been diagnosed with autism as a success. It is possible that if even the actual proportion in Utah is 1%, your sample may only have very few children who have had a previous diagnosis of an autism disorder.
