Suppose a study is being planned to estimate the relative frequency of companies that are labeled as risky. What sample size is needed so that the standard error will be no larger than 0.016 ?
Homework Answers
here as we know that maximum standard error is at p=0.5
therefore required sample size =p(1-p)/(standard error)2 =0.5*(1-0.5)/(0.016)^2 =976.56 ~ 977

Suppose a study is being planned that will investigate whether female Beagles with severe periodontitis (gum and mouth disease) give birth to smaller litters of puppies, on average, than Beagles without periodontitis. Based on previous research, the standard deviation of litter size is estimated to be 2.3 puppies Suppose we suspect that Beagles with periodontitis will give birth to on average 6 puppies whereas Beagles without periodontitis will give birth to on average 5 puppies. a. Using...

A study is being planned to estimate the mean number of semester hours taken by students at a college. The population standard deviation is assumed to be σ = 4.7 hours. How many students should be included in the sample to be 99% confident that the sample mean 3 is within one semester hour of the population mean gu for all students at this college?

3. Serum cholesterol levels above 200 mg/dl are considered high. A study is being planned to determine if the mean cholesterol level for adult Canadians exceeds 200. If a t-test is to be used with α= 0.05, what sample size is required to detect a mean cholesterol level as high as 218 with power .95? An earlier study estimated the standard deviation of cholesterol levels among Canadian adults to be about 58.2

Airline companies recognize that empty seats represent lost revenues that can never be recovered. To avoid losing revenues, the companies often book more passengers than there are available seats. Then, when a flight experiences fewer no-shows than expected, some passengers are 'bumped' from their flights (are denied boarding). Incentives are provided to encourage passengers to give up their reserved seat voluntarily, but occasionally some passengers are involuntarily bumped from the flight. Obviously, these incidents can reflect poorly on customer satisfaction....
