Dee Fektiv is concerned that too many forms are being filled out incorrectly. She feels that about 10 percent of forms have an error.
a. How large a sample size should Dee use to be 99% certain that she will be within 0.02? Show your calculations.
b. Suppose Dee will accept a confidence level of 95 percent that she will be within 0.02. what will the sample size of the forms be now?
Show your calculations.

In certain areas AIDS-HIV epidemic may a concern. A sample of 176 people were examined for AIDS-HIV and 44 were found to be infected by AIDS-HIV. We will compute a 99 percent confidence interval for the proportion p of people who were infected by AIDS-HIV. Compute the margin of error e in estimating p at 99 percent level of confidence. Give the Margin of Error e, Left end point, Right end point, and the Conservative Margin of Error E: MOE...

Many medical professionals believe that eating too much red meat increases the risk of heart disease and cancer. Suppose you would like to conduct a survey to determine the annual consumption of beef by a typical American and want to use four pounds as the desired margin of error for a confidence interval of the population mean. Assume the population standard deviation is 20 pounds. Determine the sample size when: a)A 90% confidence interval is desired for the mean amount...

Toastmasters International cites a report by Gallop Poll that 40% of Americans fear public speaking. A student believes that less than 40% of students at her school fear public speaking. She randomly surveys 361 schoolmates and finds that 135 reports they fear public speaking. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the percent at her school is less than 40% at the 99% confidence level. State the null and alternate hypothesis and α. State the z- or t-value (whichever is...

Many employers are concerned about employees wasting time by surfing the Internet and e-mailing friends during work hours. The article "Who Goofs Off 2 Hours a Day? Most Workers, Survey Says" summarized data from a large sample of workers.† Suppose that the CEO of a large company wants to determine whether the mean wasted time during an 8-hour workday for employees of her company is less than the mean of 120 minutes reported in the article. Each person in a...

The manager of a pizza chain in Albuquerque, New Mexico, wants to determine the average size of their advertised 19-inch pizzas. She takes a random sample of 29 pizzas and records their mean and standard deviation as 19.10 Inches and 120 inches, respectively. She subsequently computes the 99% confidence interval of the mean size of all pizzas as [18.53, 19.67). However, she finds this interval to be too broad to implement quality control and decides to reestimate the mean based...

3. value: 10.00 points The manufacturer of the ColorSmart-5000 television set claims 95 percent of its sets last at least five years without needing a single repair. In order to test this claim, a consumer group randomly selects 352 consumers who have owned a ColorSmart-5000 television set for five years. Of these 352 consumers, 310 say their ColorSmart-5000 television sets did not need a repair, whereas 42 say their ColorSmart-5000 television sets did need at least one repair. (a) Find...
