A survey administered to a random sample of 625 U.S. college students found that 125 out of the625 students surveyed were a member of a sorority or a fraternity.Use the appropriate formula from the provided formula sheet.Compute a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of U.S. college students who are a member ofa sorority or a fraternity. In the blank below, enter the upper bound of the 99% confidence interval for p.For example, if your confidence interval is (0.115, 0.276), the upper bound would be 0.276. Provide youranswer as a decimal rounded to three decimal places. A large supermarket chain wanted to estimate the population mean number of items purchased bycustomers per visit. A random sample of 225 customers was chosen and it was found that thesample mean number of items purchased was 18.46. The sample standard deviation was 3.97 items.Compute a 90% confidence interval for u, the population mean number of items purchased bycustomers per visit. Note that because the sample size is sufficiently large, you can use a z*confidence multiplier instead of a t* confidence multiplier. Use the appropriate formula from theprovided formula sheet.In the blank below, enter the lower bound of the 90% confidence interval for µ. For example, if yourconfidence interval is (22.115, 25.876), the lower bound would be 22.115. Round your answer to threedecimal places.
