A random sample of 1,117 U.S. college students finds that 729 go home at least once each term. Find a 98 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all U.S. college students who go home at least once each term.
Suppose that you make two confidence intervals with the same data set — one with a 95 percent confidence level and the other with a 99.7 percent confidence level.
Which interval is wider?Is a wide confidence interval a good thing?
Is it true that a 95 percent confidence interval means you’re 95 percent confident that the sample statistic is in the interval?
