A recent study of 3000 children randomly selected found 23% of them deficient in vitamin D. a) Construct the 98% confidence interval for the true proportion of children who are deficient in vitamin D. left parenthesis nothing comma nothing right parenthesis (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b) Explain carefully what the interval means. A. We are 98% confident that the interval contains the true proportion of children deficient in vitamin D. B. We are 98% confident that the...
Suppose that a simple random sample of 121 people finds that 40 eat chocolate every day. Use this information to answer the following. A)What is the sample proportion for people who each chocolate every day? B)Do we have what we need to compute a confidence interval? Be sure to include your reasoning for full credit. C)Find the lower bound for a 98% confidence interval of the true proportion of people who eat chocolate daily, accurate to 3 decimal places. D)Find...
A survey of 548 citizens found that 363 of them favor a new bill introduced by the city. we want to find a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of the population who favor the bill. what is the lower limit of the interval? ( Round to 3 decimal digits)
2. A psychologist is interested in constructing a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain. 64 of the 802 randomly selected people who were surveyed agreed with this theory. a. With 99% confidence the proportion of all people who accept the theory that a person's spirit is no more than the complicated network of neurons in the brain is...
Page 1 of 3 1Chapter 10 Quiz1.What is your favorite color? A large survey of countries, including the United States,China, Russia, France, Turkey, Kenya, and others, indicate that most people prefer the colorblue. In fact, about 24% of the population claim blue as their favorite color (Reference: Study byJ. Bunge and A. Freeman-Gallant, Statistics Center, Cornell University). Suppose a randomsample of 56 college students were surveyed and 12 of them said that blue is their favoritecolor. Does this information imply...
a study is conducted to test the hypothesis that people with glaucoma have higher than average blood pressure. the study includes 30 people with glaucoma whose mean bp is 140 mm hg with a standard deviation of 24mm hg. the distribution of sbp appears to be bell shaped. you need to construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean sbp among people with glaucoma. to help you do so, answer each of the following questions. What is the standard...
