Question
Suppose a new treatment for a certain disease is given to a sample of 190 patients. The treatment was successful for 152 of the patients. Assume that these patients are representative of the population of individuals who have this disease. Calculate a 98% confidence interval for the proportion successfully treated. (Round the answers to three decimal places.)

Which of the following is true about this interval when compared with a 95% confidence interval based on a random sample of 600 students from the same university? a. The interval based on a sample of 600 students will be wider than the interval based on a sample of 1,000 students. b.
