**Transcription:**Out of 300 people sampled, 186 preferred Candidate A. Based on this, estimate what proportion of the voting population (*p*) prefers Candidate A.Use a 90% confidence level, and give your answers as decimals, to three places.\[ \_\_\_ < p < \_\_\_ \]**Diagram Description:**The image includes a cartoon illustration of a person standing at a podium, with arms raised. Two signs with the word "VOTE" are held up, one in red and one in blue. This illustrates a common theme associated with voting and election campaigns. Out of 200 people sampled, 152 preferred Candidate A.Based on this, find a 90% confidence level for the true proportion of the voting population (p) preferring Candidate A.Give your answers as decimals, to three places.\[ \_\_\_ < p < \_\_\_ \]

Given that, x=186,n=300 The sample proportion is, Critical values: By using the standard normal table of Z, the critical value at 90% confidence level for two tailed test is The 90% confidence interval for the true proportion of the voting population prefers candidate A is,Given that, x=152,n=200 The sample proportion is, Critical values: By using the standard normal table of Z, the critical value at 90% confidence level for two tailed test is The 90% confidence interval for the true proportion of the voting population prefers candidate A is,

In 2016 the Better Business Bureau settled 84% of complaints they received in the United States. Suppose you have been hired by the Better Business Bureau to investigate the complaints they received this year involving new car dealers. You plan to select a sample of new car dealer complaints to estimate the proportion of complaints the Better Business Bureau is able to settle. Assume the population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers is 0.84, the same as the overall proportion of complaints settled in 2016. Use the z-table. a. Suppose you select a sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of p. E(p) (to 2 decimals) (to 4 decimals) b. Based upon a sample of 200 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion (to 4 decimals)? probability : = c. Suppose you select a sample of 460 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of p. E(F) (to 2…

In a random sample of seven people, the mean driving distance to work was 22.5 miles and the standard deviation was 5.9 miles. Assume the population is normally distributed and use the t-distribution to find the margin of error and construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean u. Interpret the results. Identify the margin of error. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean. (Round to one decimal place as needed.) Interpret the results. Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.) O A. With % confidence, it can be said that most driving distances to work (in miles) in the population are between the interval's endpoints. O B. It can be said that % of the population has a driving distance to work (in miles) that is between the interval's endpoints. OC.
