Among the 34,506 people who​ responded, 63​% 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?

A newspaper article stated that the US Supreme Court received 812 letters from around the country on the subject of whether to ban cameras from the courtroom. Of these 812 letters, 800 expressed the opinion that cameras should be banned. A statistics student was going to use this sample information to estimate a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all American adults feel that cameras should be banned from the courtroom. what is the 95% confidence interval?

Construct a 95% confidence interval for p1 - p2 for a survey that finds 30% of 240 males and 41% of 200 females are opposed to the death penalty. Group of answer choices a.(-0.200, -0.021) b.(-1.532, 1.342) c.(-1.324, 1.512) d.(-0.561, 0.651)

A college administrator is interested in determining the proportion of students who receive some sort of financial aid. Instead of examining the records for all students, the administrator randomly draws 120 students and finds that 48 of them are receiving financial aid. Use a 90% confidence interval to estimate the true proportion of students who receive financial aid.

Suppose the English department of a local university has a  total of 105 faculty members. Of this number, 24 (about 23%) are part-time instructors. Is it appropriate to find a confidence interval for the percentage of part-time instructors in the department? Find a 95% confidence interval  or explain why you should not find a confidence interval for the percentage of part-time instructors in the English department.

Several years ago, 44% of parents who had children in grades K-12 were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. A recent poll asked 1,075 parents who have children in grades K-12 if they were satisfied with the quality of education the students receive. Of the 1,075 surveyed, 479 indicated that they were satisfied. Construct a 95% confidence interval to assess whether this represents evidence that parents' attitudes toward the quality of education have changed. What are the null and alternative hypotheses? Ho: p = 0.44 versus H,: p 0.44 (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Use technology to find the 95% confidence interval. The lower is The upper bound is (Round to two decimal places as needed.)

Suppose we wish to estimate the average number of hours per week that Americans watch TV. Use the following data from an SRS to find a 90% confidence interval: 30        64        49        40        21        58        9          43        39            43

A newspaper infographic titled "Social Media Jeopardizing Your Job?" summarized data from a survey of 1,850 recruiters and human resource professionals. The infographic indicated that 52% of the people surveyed had reconsidered a job candidate based on his or her social media profile. Assume that the sample is representative of the population of recruiters and human resource professionals in the United States.   Would a 90% confidence interval be wider or narrower than the 95% confidence interval from part (a)? widernarrower

In the Star and Tribune newspaper, there is an article entitled "1 in 8 school buses fail tests." The article says that the overall statewide proportion of school buses that fail safety tests is 9%. However, one bus company has a higher rate of over 12%. Assume that we want a new estimate for the statewide proportion of school buses that fail the safety inspection. How large a sample would you have to take in order to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate for the true proportion of buses that fail the inspection and achieve a margin of error of plus or minus 2%? (your answer should be an integer)

In a recent survey of 1264 US adults, 26.6% said they had seen a ghost.  What is the LOWER endpoint of a 98% confidence interval for the population proportion? What is the UPPER endpoint of a 98% confidence interval for the population proportion?  Answers should be decimals (not percentages).
