Suppose you have a sample size of 36 with a mean 79 and a population standard deviation of 8. Based on this, construct a 99% confidence interval for the true population mean. As in the reading, in your calculations: --Use z = 1.645 for a 90% confidence interval --Use z = 2 for a 95% confidence interval --Use z = 2.576 for a 99% confidence interval. Give your answers as decimals, to two places [ , ]
A group of people were asked if they had run a red light in the last year. 106 responded "yes", and 435 responded "no". Find the probability that if a person is chosen at random, they have run a red light in the last year. Give your answer as a fraction or decimal Suppose the true proportion of voters in the county who support a specific candidate is 0.56.
Consider the sampling distribution for the proportion of supporters with sample size n = 90. What is the mean of this distribution? (Enter your answer accurate to two decimal places.) What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution (i.e. the standard error)? (Enter your answer accurate to three decimal places.)
