Answer questions 8.2.11 and 8.2.12 respectively
8.4.2 An article in Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy [“Arthroscopic Meniscal Repair with an
Absorbable Screw: Results and Surgical Technique” (2005, Vol.
13, pp. 273–279)] showed that only 25 out of 37 tears (67.6%)
located between 3 and 6 mm from the meniscus rim were healed.
a. Calculate a two-sided 95% confidence interval on the proportion of such tears that will heal.
b. Calculate a 95% lower confidence bound on the proportion of such tears that will heal.
8.4.3 An article in the Journal of the American Statistical Association [“Illustration of Bayesian Inference in Normal Data Models Using Gibbs Sampling” (1990, Vol. 85, pp.
972–985)] measured the weight of 30 rats under experiment controls. Suppose that 12 were underweight rats.
a. Calculate a 95% two-sided confidence interval on the true
proportion of rats that would show underweight from the
experiment.
b. Using the point estimate of p obtained from the preliminary sample, what sample size is needed to be 95%…
8.4.8 Use the data from Exercise 8.4.2 to compute the two-sided
Agresti-Coull CI on the proportion of tears that heal. Compare
and discuss the relationship of this interval to the one computed
in Exercise 8.4.2.

How would the answer to part (b) change if you had to assume that the machine read only one-half of the digits correctly?arrow_forwardAnswer questions 8S7 and 8S14arrow_forward

Find a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of seeds that germinate based on this sample. b. Does this seem to provide evidence that the claim is wrong? 8.6.1 Consider the tire-testing data described in Exercise 8.2.3. Compute a 95% prediction interval on the life of the next tire of this type tested under conditions that are similar to those employed in the original test.
