Suppose a simulation of 10 replications has an average number in queue of 15.5 with a 95% half-width 2.5. How many replications are needed if we want that estimate of the average to have a 95% confidence interval within 10% of the mean?

Suppose a pilot run of a simulation model estimated that the average waiting time for a customer during the day was 11.485 minutes based on an initial sample size of 15 replications with a 95% confidence interval half-width of 1.04 (h0) and h= 0.1. Using the half-width technique, estimate the sample size or the number of replications. Estimate the initial sample standard deviation?
1) 2) A (1-a) confidence interval procedure ensures that if a large number of confidence intervals are computed, each based on n samples, then the proportion of the confidence intervals that contain the true value should be close to (1-a). True O False Suppose we are required to estimate the output from a simulation so that we are 95% confident that we are within plus or minus 1 of the true population mean. After taking a pilot sample of size...
A certain small town has a population of 5000 residents. You want to calculate a confidence interval for the average number of gallons of gas bought per month by the residents of this town. You want to be 95% confident that the true value of the population mean is within your interval, and you need to have a margin of error no higher than 10 gallons per month. Based on your previous research in similar towns, you believe that the...

We want to know the average number of hours financial advisors in your area work a month. You survey 76 random advisors and find the average hours they work per month is 189. You also believe that the population standard deviation is 20 hours a month. Give a 99% confidence interval for the estimated average number of hours financial advisors work per month. Confidence Interval Estimate for the Mean Data Population Standard Deviation 20 Sample Mean 189 Sample Size 76...
Paul carried out 1000 bootstrap replications using computer and obtained the following bootstrap distribution of sample means. The bootstrap standard error is given by 1.843. 50 40 30 20 10 15 16 13 10 10.974 Using the 95% rule, what is the 95% confidence interval for the population mean μ of the daily number of crime incidents in Sydney (rounded to one dp.)? Α) (5.9, 15.5) B) (6.3, l 5.0) C) (73,14.7) D) (7.6,142) 14. E) (8.0.14.0) Using the percentile...
How can I find a standard deviation of a simulation of 1000000 replications of the number of heads in 400 biased coin tosses, (1/10 chance of landing heads) in R? The code should be sqrt(sd(rbinom(1000000,400,1/10)^2 x (1000000-1)/1000000), but I have no idea why it is set out that way. Thank you
2. Suppose that a random sample of 41 state college students is asked to measure the length of their right foot in centimeters. A 90% confidence interval for the mean foot length for students at this university turns out to be (21.709, 25.091). If we now calculated a 95% confidence interval, would the new confidence interval be wider than or narrower than or the same as the original? b. Suppose two researchers want to estimate the proportion of American college...
