- Suppose you find that the 95% confidence interval for the cost of a wedding is ($29,000, $35,000). What is the correct interpretation of this interval? Group of answer choices For the next wedding you attend, the cost will be between $29,000 and $35,000. There is a 95% probability that the sample mean is between $29,000 and $35,000. There is a 95% probability that the population mean is between $29,000 and $35,000. You are 95% confident that the mean wedding cost is between $29,000 and $35,000. thanksarrow_forwardConstruct 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.

Based on 1500 interviews, the Gallup report makes confidence statements about its conclusions. If 64% of those interviewed favored modern technology, we can be 95% confident that the percent of those who favored modern technology is a 95% of 64%, or 60.8% b 95% 3% c 64% d 64% 3%arrow_forward

Find the confidence interval and answer any additional questions. A poll is conducted the day before a state election for senator. There are only two candidates running for this office. The poll results show that 55% of the voters favor the Republican candidate. with a margin of error of 3 percentage points. Should the Republican expect to win? Why or why not? % to %.

- What is the effect on the size of the confidence interval if a T score is used instead of a Z score? O It causes the interval to be smaller. O It has no effect on the interval. O It causes the interval to be bigger.arrow_forwardWhich of the following confidence intervals would have a wider width for the same set of data? A 90% interval. A 99% interval. Group of answer choices The 90% interval. The 99% interval.arrow_forwardA college professor would like to estimate the proportion of students who pull an "all-nighter," meaning they study all night for an upcoming exam. She selects a random sample of 100 students from her large college and finds that the 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of students who pull an all-nighter is 0.48 to 0.62. Which of these statements is a correct interpretation of the confidence level? O Approximately 99% of all students have pulled an all-nighter. O There is a 99% probability that the true proportion of all students who pull an all-nighter is between 0.48 and 0.62. If many random samples of size 100 are selected from all students at this college, approximately 99% of the intervals would capture the true proportion who pull an all-nighter. C Approximately 99% of the sample proportions of students who pull an all-nighter, based on random samples of size 100 from the population of all students at this college, will fall between 0.48 and 0.62.arrow_forward
- Statistics students surveyed 135 students at Tallahassee Community College. From their data we are 95% confident that between 44.7% and 61.9% of all TCC students are female. The students realize that this interval contains a large margin of error. What can they do to make a narrower interval? 1. Survey more students. 2. Use a 99% confidence level. 3. Survey more students and use a 99% confidence interval. 4. None of the other choices.arrow_forwardThe following summary of a statistical study gives a sample statistic and a margin of error. Find the confidence interval and answer any additional questions. A poll is conducted the day before a state election for senator. There are only two candidates running for this office. The poll results show that 57% of the voters favor the Republican candidate, with a margin of error of 3 percentage points. Should the Republican expect to win? Why or why not?
