8.4.7 Use the data from Exercise 8.4.5 to compute the two-sided
Agresti-Coull CI on the proportion of digits read correctly.
Compare and discuss the relationship of this interval to the one
computed in Exercise 8.4.5.
8.6.5 Consider the fuel rod enrichment data described in Exercise 8.2.11. Compute a 90% prediction interval on the enrichment of the next rod tested. Compare the length of the prediction
interval with the length of the 99% CI on the population mean.
8.4.4 The Arizona Department of Transportation
wishes to survey state residents to determine what proportion of
the population would like to increase statewide highway speed
limits from 65 mph to 75 mph. How many residents does the
department need to survey if it wants to be at least 99% confident
that the sample proportion is within 0.05 of the true proportion?
8.4.5 The U.S. Postal Service (USPS) has used optical character
recognition (OCR) since the mid-1960s. In 1983, USPS began
deploying the technology to major post offices throughout the
country (www.britannica.com). Suppose that in a random sample
of 500 handwritten zip code digits, 466 were read correctly.
a. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of correct digits that can be automatically read.
b. What sample size is needed to reduce the margin of error
to 1%?
c. How would the answer to part (b) change if you had
to assume that the machine read only one-half of the digits
correctly?
