Since here we construct 40 confidence interval separately with confidence level = 95%.
we expect about 40*95% = 40*0.95 = 38 of them include the true
proportion.
So answer = 38.

a. Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion p. Find the 95% confidence interval for a sample of size 198 with 42 successes. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) using decimals (not percents) accurate to three decimal places. 95% C.I. = b. A political candidate has asked you to conduct a poll to determine what percentage of people support her. If the candidate only wants a 0.5% margin of error at a 99% confidence...
A 95% confidence interval for a population proportion p is found to be (0.52, 0.58). What does this mean? A. There is a 95% probability that the actual value of p is between 52% and 58%. B. If many simple random samples of the same size were taken from the population, and a confidence interval were constructed for each one, then about 95% of them would contain the actual value of p. C. 95% of all sample proportions are between...
Suppose you construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the true population mean by conducting a random sample of size n=100. Your sample mean x (with a bar over it) = 80.5 and your calculated maximum error of the estimate is E = 3.5. What does this suggest? Circle answer. a. in 5% of all samples of this size, the mean is more than 84, b. in 95% of all samples of this size, the mean is at least 77,...

a. Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion p. Find the margin of error M.E. that corresponds to a sample of size 343 with 292 successes at a confidence level of 99.8%. M.E.= b. You measure 46 textbooks' weights and find they have a mean weight of 79 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 7.5 ounces. Based on this, construct a 90% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight. Give your answers as...
Let's say we have constructed a 95% confidence interval estimate for a population mean. Which of the following statements would be correct? A. We expect that 95% of the intervals so constructed would contain the true population mean. B. We are 95% sure that the true population mean lies either within the constructed interval or outside the constructed interval. C. Taking 100 samples of the same size, and constructing a new confidence interval from each sample, would yield five intervals...
Compute the 95% confidence interval estimate for the population proportion, p, based on a sample size of 100 when the sample proportion, is equal to 0.28. What is the upper bound of this confidence interval? (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Question 9 20 pts Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion p. Find the margin of error E that corresponds to the given statistics and confidence level. Round the margin of error to four decimal places. 95% confidence; n = 396 x = 48 Question 10 20 pts Use the given degree of confidence and sample data to construct a confidence interval for the population proportion p. Of 150 adults selected randomly from one town, 30...
You are interested in constructing a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all caterpillars that eventually become butterflies. Of the 384 randomly selected caterpillars observed, 52 lived to become butterflies. Round answers to 4 decimal places where possible. a. With 95% confidence the proportion of all caterpillars that lived to become a butterfly is between and b. If many groups of 384 randomly selected caterpillars were observed, then a different confidence interval would be produced from each group. About...
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...
