From a survey of coworkers you find that 56% of 150 have already received this year's flu vaccine. An approximate 98% confidence interval is (0.466, 0.654). a) How would the confidence interval change if the sample size had been 2400 instead of 150? b) How would the confidence interval change if the confidence level had been 99% instead of 98%? c) How would the confidence interval change if the confidence level had been 95% instead of 98%?

An online site presented this question, "Would the recent norovirus outbreak deter you from taking a cruise?" Among the 34,289 people who responded,61% answered "yes." Use the sample data to construct a 95%confidence interval estimate for the proportion of the population of all people who would respond "yes" to that question. Does the confidence interval provide a good estimate of the population proportion? _<p<_ (Round to three decimal places as needed.) Does the confidence interval provide a good estimate of...

1. You survey 850 teenagers and find that 196 of them smoke cigarettes. a. What is the sample proportion? b. Write a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of teenagers who smoke cigarettes. c. Write a sentence interpreting this interval. c. What is the margin of error for this interval? d. Suppose we’d like the margin of error to be less than 1%? Using the same sample proportion from part a, how big of a sample would we need?

In examining the credit accounts of a department store, an auditor would like to estimate the true mean account error (book value – audited value). To do so, the auditor selected a random sample of 50 accounts and found the mean account error to be $60 with a standard deviation of $30. a. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean account error. What conclusion can be made from this confidence interval? b. How large a sample is actually...
