- Below are the sample standard deviations and sample sizes for independent simple random samples from two populations. Use the two-standard-deviations F-test and the two-standard-deviations F-interval procedure to conduct the required hypothesis test and obtain the specified confidence interval.

You work for the human resources department of CorpPlus and want to estimate the population proportion of all employees who say the corporation is a great place to work. So, you will survey a random sample of 95 employees from CorpPlus and ask them whether they think the corporation is a great place to work. Follow the steps below to construct a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of all employees who say the corporation is a great place to work. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) (a) Click on "Take Sample" to see the results from the random sample. Take Sample Sample size: 0 Point estimate: 0 Critical value: 0 Compute 0.000 Says the corporation is a great place to work Enter the values of the sample size, the point estimate of the population proportion, and the critical value you need for your 99% confidence interval.

- An online site presented this question, "Would the recent norovirus outbreak deter you from taking a cruise?" Among the 34,006 people who responded, 65% answered "yes." Use the sample data to construct a 90% 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?arrow_forwardProvide an explanation as to why it would be very unlikely that a different sample of size n=30 would produce the same confidence interval.arrow_forwardNina would like to estimate the difference in the mean amount of time students spend on math homework at her public school versus her cousin Sharon’s private school. To do so, each girl selects a random sample of 30 students from their large schools and asks the selected students how much time they spent doing math homework the previous night. Nina and Sharon would like to construct a 90% confidence interval for the true difference in the population means. Are the conditions for inference met? Yes, all three conditions for inference are met. No, the random condition is not met for both samples. No, the 10% condition is not met for both samples. No, the Normal/large sample condition is not met for both samples.arrow_forward
- The Martin County Health Department needs to estimate the proportion of all children in the county aged 19-35 months that are completely up to date with all state-recommended immunizations. The Martin County Health Department found that 88% of a random sample of children in the county aged 19-35 months were completely up to date with all state-recommended immunizations. Find three different confidence intervals - one with sample size 228, one with sample size 402, and one with sample size 658. Assume that 88% of the children each sample are completely up to date with all state recommended immunizations. Observe how the sample size affects the margin of error and subsequently the width of each interval. Report confidence interval solutions using interval notation. Report all solutions in percent form, rounded to two decimal places, if necessary. • When n = 228, the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval is given by When n = • When n = When n = 228, a 95% confidence interval is…arrow_forwardSuppose a test is given to 20 randomly selected college freshmen in Ohio.
