... The NAEP test (Example 7, page 439) was given to a sample of 1077 women of ages 21 to 25 years. Their mean quantitative score was 275 and the standard deviation was 58. c) What are the margins of error for 90%, 95%, and 99% confidence? How does increasing the confidence level affect the margin of er ...

... where n denotes the sample size, not the size of the population. Therefore we use the proportion p̂ of successes in a SRS to estimate the proportion p of successes in the population. Since we want to use our sample proportion p̂ to infer about the unknown population proportion p , we must ask oursel ...

... light bulbs with a mean life of 1265. Can we confidently conclude that the new process produces on average longer-life bulbs? (z=2.17, reject .05 level, do not reject .01 level) 27. The average number of traffic accidents per 10 miles of state highway had been 42. New data this year from a sample of ...
