He randomly selected 75 Canadian adults from 2005 data and found 12 of them are obese; In a random sample of 120 Canadian adults from 2009 data, he found 17 of them are obese. He wants to develop a 96% confidence interval for the change is obese percentage. Let population1 be 2005 data and population2 be 2009 data. Write down the critical value.

- Kiyo is confused. He has constructed a 90% confidence interval for the average age of students at his school and the 99% confidence interval he constructed is (18.4, 25.6). However, he was checking his work, and when he looked at his data, only 37% of the people in his survey have ages between 18.4 and 25.6. Did Kiyo make a mistake? In other words, should the proportion of ages contained between 18.4 and 25.6 be 90% or is this a misunderstanding on Kiyo's part? Explain. What was Kiyo's sample mean?arrow_forwardA poll of 1030 adults in a country was conducted by telephone.

- Can you help me with this question from my Business Statistics class?arrow_forwardWhat proportion of Law School applicants are accepted into Law School? In a survey of a random sample of Law School applicants, the proportion who were accepted into Law School was observed to be 0.44. When a 95% confidence interval was constructed based on this sample of data, it was found to be from 0.40 to 0.48. How should this interval be interpreted? If we repeat the sampling process 100 times, 95% of all resulting confidence intervals will be from 0.40 to 0.48. We are 95% confident the interval from 0.40 to 0.48 includes the proportion of Law School applicants in this sample who were accepted into Law School. We are 95% confident the interval from 0.40 to 0.48 includes the proportion of Law School applicants in the population who are accepted into Law School. With 95% confidence, if you apply to Law School, you have a 44% ± 4% chance of being accepted. In the last 100 years, 95% of all Law School applicants have been accepted into Law School 44% of the time.arrow_forwardAccording to a poll, 79% of California adults (399 out of 506 surveyed) feel that education is one of the top issues facing California.
