The 99% confidence interval
p̂ = 0.495, 1 - p̂ = 0.505, n = 568, α = 0.01
The Zcritical (2 tail) for α = 0.01, is 2.576
The Confidence Interval is given by p̂ ± ME, where
The Lower Limit = 0.495 - 0.054 = 0.441
The Upper Limit = 0.495 + 0.054 =0.549
The 99% Confidence Interval is 0.441 < p < 0.549
The 80% confidence interval
p̂ = 0.495, 1 - p̂ = 0.505, n = 568, α = 0.20
The Zcritical (2 tail) for α = 0.20, is 1.282
The Confidence Interval is given by p̂ ± ME, where
The Lower Limit = 0.495 - 0.027 = 0.468
The Upper Limit = 0.495 + 0.027 =0.522
The 80% Confidence Interval is 0.468 < p < 0.522
The Width of the 99% CI is = 0.549 - 0.441 = 0.108
The Width of the 80% CI is = 0.522- 0.468 = 0.054
Therefore for question (d) OPTION (C) is the correct answer. The 99% confidence interval is wider than the 80% confidence interval. As the confidence interval widens, the probability the probability that the confidence interval actually does contain the population parameter increases.

Is there a relationship between confidence intervals and two-tailed hypothesis tests? Let c be the level of confidence used to construct a confidence interval from sample data. Let α be the level of significance for a two-tailed hypothesis test. The following statement applies to hypothesis tests of the mean. For a two-tailed hypothesis test with level of significance α and null hypothesis H0: μ = k, we reject H0 whenever k falls outside the c = 1 − α confidence...
