QUESTION 9 It is known that the variance of a population equals 1444. A random sample of 100 observations is going to be taken from the population. Compute the margin of error corresponding to a 96% level of confidence. NOTE: WRITE YOUR ANSWER WITH 4 DECIMAL DIGITS. DO NOT ROUND UP OR DOWN. QUESTION 12 The average score of a sample of 100 senior business majors at UTC who took the Graduate Management Admission Test was 530 with a variance...
QUESTION 15 A statistician employed by a consumer testing organization reports that at 95% confidence he has determined that the true average content of the Uncola soft drinks is between 12.714 to 13.286 ounces, but he forgot to report the size of the sample he had selected. Assuming the standard deviation of the population is 1.21, determine the size of the sample. (NOTE: ROUND YOUR ANSWER TO THE NEAREST INTEGER) QUESTION 16 If the population variance of the lifetime of...
A random sample of 49 observations is used to estimate the population variance. The sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 59 and 3.1, respectively. Assume that the population is normally distributed. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: chi-square table or F table) a. Construct the 90% interval estimate for the population variance. (Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Confidence interval b. Construct the...
The confidence interval lower limit and upper limit for a population mean are (43.5, 47.9). What is the sample mean and the margin of error for the sample.A sample of size 36 with ¯xx¯ = 45.7 and ss = 12.4 is used to estimate a population mean μμ. Find the 70% confidence interval for μμ. Sample mean = Margin of error =
A random sample of n=7 observations are drawn from a normal population with mean and variance σ^2. The mean and variance of the sample are 1.45 and 2.07 respectively. Calculate a 90% confidence interval for the population standard deviation.

1. A random sample of 25 observations was selected from a normally distributed population. The average in the sample was 84.6 with a variance of 400.a. Construct a 90% confidence interval for μ.b. Construct a 99% confidence interval for μ.c. Discuss why the 90% and 99% confidence intervals are different.d. What would you expect to happen to the confidence interval in part (a) if the sample size was increased? Be sure to explain your answer.
A random sample of 88 women showed that the mean number of children reported was 1.58 with a standard deviation of 1.8. (interestingly, a sample of 88 men showed a mean of 1.3 children.) Complete parts (a) through (c) below EEB Click the lcon to view the ttable. Find a 95% confidence interval for the population mean number of children for women. Because the sample size is so large, you can use 1.96 for the critical value of t (which...
