SAT scores: A college admissions officer sampled 108 entering freshmen and found that 34 of them...
(COMPUTE AND INTERPRET CONFIDENCE INTERVAL ESTIMATES) A college admissions officer sampled 120 entering freshmen and found that 42 of them scored more than 550 on the math SAT. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all entering freshmen at this college who scored more than 550 on the math SAT. Find the critical values, find E , the margin of error, then compute and interpret your interval estimate with a full sentence. Critical value: (draw, label & shade)...
A college admissions officer takes a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen and computes their mean mathematics SAT score to be 458. It is know that the population standard deviation of all mathematics SAT scores is 116. a. What function would you use to create a confidence interval for the mean mathematics SAT score for the entering freshman class? b. Create a 99% confidence interval for the mean mathematics SAT score for the entering freshman class. Round to 2...

Wel A college admissions officer takes a simple random sample of 110 entering freshmen and computes their mean mathematics SAT score to be 465. Assume the population standard deviation is 0 - 92. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean mathematics SAT score for the entering freshmen class (373.557 (451, 479) (463,467)
A college admissions officer takes a simple random sample of 104 entering freshmen and computes their mean mathematics SAT score to be 490 . Assume the population standard deviation is 117 . What is the lower bound of the 99% confidence interval?
A college admissions officer takes a simple random sample of 102 entering freshmen and computes their mean mathematics SAT score to be 496 . Assume the population standard deviation is 118 . What is the lower bound of the 99% confidence interval?
in a simple random sample of 190 households, the sample mean number of personal computers was 2.78. assume the population standard deviation is 0.41. a) a 99.8% confidence interval for the mean number of personal computers is ----< mean <----- 2) a simple random sample of eight college freshman were asked about how many hours of sleep they typically got per night. the results were 7.5, 8, 6.5, 24, 8.5, 6.5, 7, 7.5 a) the data contains an outlier that...
The admissions officer at a small college compares the scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) for the school's in-state and out-of-state applicants. A random sample of 19 in-state applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1228 with a standard deviation of 39. A random sample of 11 out-of-state applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1168 with a standard deviation of 31. Using this data, find the 80% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the...
The admissions officer at a small college compares the scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) for the school's male and female applicants. A random sample of 12 male applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1053 with a standard deviation of 30. A random sample of 18 female applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1155 with a standard deviation of 42. Using this data, find the 90% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the...
The admissions officer at a small college compares the scores on the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) for the school's in-state and out-of-state applicants. A random sample of 8 in-state applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1106 with a standard deviation of 57. A random sample of 18 out-of-state applicants results in a SAT scoring mean of 1073 with a standard deviation of 47. Using this data, find the 90% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the...
