Q1) From standard normal tables, we have here:
P(-1.96 < Z < 1.96) = 0.95
Also, as we are not given a prior proportion value here, we use p = 0.5 to get a conservative value of the sample size. The margin of error here is computed as:
Therefore 25 is the required sample size here.

Q1. Determine the minimum sample size required when you want to be 95% confident that the sample mean is within 1.3 unites of the population mean. Assume that the population is normally distributed with standard deviation σ = 5.1. a. The critical value: b. The margin of error: c. The sample size:
compute a 95% upper confidence interval of σ^2 . Q1: Given xi,T2, , and sample second moment is2. Compute the sample variance ,Xn. Suppose n = 10, sample first moment (i.e., sample mean) is s Σία 1x2-2. Compute the sample variance.
For each of the following three sample sizes, con- struct the 95% confidence interval. Use a sample proportion of 0.40 throughout. What happens to interval width as sample size increases? Why? P. = 0.40 Sample A: N = 100 Sample B: N = 1000 Sample C: N = 10,000
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.)
Find the minimum sample size n necessary to estimate a population proportion p with a 95% confidence interval that has a margin of error m = 0.04. Assume that you don’t have any idea what p is so that you use the simpler formula for n (which comes from taking the more complicated formula for n and substituting p∗ = 0.5 into it).
2. A simple random sample of size n is drawn. The sample mean I is found to be 53.1, and the sample standard deviation s is found to be 7.8 a) (3 points) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean u if the sample size n is 81. b) (3 points) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean u if the sample size n is 30. c) (3 points) Construct a 90% confidence interval for the...
A student was asked to find a 95% confidence interval for widget width using data from a random sample of size n = 29. Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the interval 13.7 < μ < 25.4? Check all that are correct. With 95% confidence, the mean width of all widgets is between 13.7 and 25.4. With 95% confidence, the mean width of a randomly selected widget will be between 13.7 and 25.4. There is a 95%...
Using the formula ,compute a 95% confidence interval for a population proportion given the sample proportion is 0.24 and the sample size is 1014. Round your answers to 4 decimal places, e.g. 0.7523. 0.0263
Determine the sample size needed to construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the average GPA for the student population at a college with a margin of error equal to 0.2. Assume the standard deviation of the GPA for the student population is 25 The sample size needed is (Round up to the nearest integer.) Determine the sample size n needed to construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion for the following sample proportions when the margin...
Determine the minimum sample size required when you want to be 95% confident that the sample mean is within one unit of the population mean and standard deviation is 15.9. Assume the population is normally distributed.
