In a recent poll of 1000 randomly selected adults, a president's approval rating stood at 51 %. a) Make a 90% confidence interval for his approval rating by all adults in the country.b) Based on the confidence interval, test the null hypothesis that 51% of the country approved of the way he was handling his job at that time. a) Find the 90% confidence interval as a true proportion. (___, ___) (Round to three decimal places as needed.)

Use the sample data and confidence level given below to complete parts (a) through (d). In a study of cell phone use and brain hemispheric dominance, an Internet survey was e-mailed to 2483 subjects randomly selected from an online group involved with ears. 1199 surveys were returned. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of returned surveys. Find the best point estimate of the population proportion p

8. Data were collected on the lengths of all phone calls made by college students on cell phones during one month. Two measures of center (mean and median) for this distribution were identified as 2.5 minutes and 13.7 minutes. Which of the following is true? The mean is 2.5 minutes and the median is 13.7 minutes because the distribution of the lengths is phone calls is most likely left-skewed. The mean is 2.5 minutes and the median is 13.7 minutes...
