Which is cheaper: eating out or dining in? The mean cost of a flank steak,
broccoli, and rice bought at the grocery store is $13.04 (Money.msn website,
November 7, 2012). A sample of 100 neighborhood restaurants showed a
mean price of $12.75 and a standard deviation of $2 for a comparable
restaurant meal. Answer questions 4-7.
What if we're able to use a normal model.
In order to construct a 99% Confidence Interval, we use the following formula:
p hat ± ME for 99% CI
If p hat = 0.38 and ME for 99% CI = 0.126, what is CI?
Keep the numbers in 3 decimal places. Put the two numbers in ( ) and use a comma, then a space between the two numbers.
The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of yes responses is (0.55, 0.71) for strong Democrats and (0.17, 0.34) for strong Republicans. How would you interpret each of these intervals? Which group appears to have a greater tendency to answer yes to this question?

- HR department wants to make sure that their hiring practices are independent of gender. In other words, they want to ensure that both men and women have an equal chance of being hired. The observed data related to this survey is summarized in the following table: Observed frequency Male Female Total Hired 45 35 Not Hired 32 28 Total Given Ho = “HR department hired male and female employees equally”, decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis (α = 0.05).arrow_forwardAll of the following statements regarding Confidence Intervals and Hypothesis Testing are correct except for: A two-tailed hypothesis test conducted at alpha=.05 requires a two-sided 90% confidence interval. One-sided confidence intervals are used for one-tailed hypothesis tests. A two-tailed hypothesis test conducted at alpha=.01 requires a two-sided 99% confidence interval. If the hypothesized mean is in the confidence interval, the null hypothesis will NOT be rejected.arrow_forwardIf a significance test gives p-value 0.005...

The first population proportion is less than the second. The two population proportions might be the same.. No comparison can be made between the two population proportions. The first population proportion is greater than the second.arrow_forwardA 95% confidence interval for the mean can be interpreted to which of the following? (A) None of the above is correct. You can be 95% certain that you have selected a sample with a corresponding B confidence interval that includes the population mean. Both of the above are correct. If all possible samples are taken and confidence intervals are calculated, 95% of those intervals will (D include the true population mean.arrow_forward
- Suppose you are interested in the rate of autism among current school-aged children in Utah. You collect a sample of 400 children between the ages of 5 and 18 and find that two have had a previous diagnosis of an autism disorder. You plan to calculate a 95% confidence interval estimator of the proportion of school-aged children in Utah who have ever had a diagnosis of an autism disorder. Which of the following is the most likely reason you would use a Wilson estimator to calculate the confidence interval estimator? A confidence interval estimator based on the Wilson estimator does not use the normal distribution. It is possible that if even the actual proportion in Utah is 1%, your sample may only have very few children who have had a previous diagnosis of an autism disorder. It is an easier way to calculate the confidence interval estimator. It is uncomfortable to define having been diagnosed with autism as a success. Let p be the proportion of…arrow_forwardtwo 95 percent confidence intervals will be constructed to estimate the difference in means of two populations, R and J. One confidence interval, I400, will be constructed using samples of size 400 from each of R and J, and the other confidence interval, I100, will be constructed using samples of size 100 from each of R and J. When all other things remain the same, which of the following describes the relationship between the two confidence intervals?arrow_forward
