A national survey of insurance offices was taken, resulting in a random sample of 253 companies. Of these 253 companies, 181 responded that they were going to purchase new software for their offices in the next year. Construct a 90% confidence interval to estimate the population proportion of insurance offices that intend to purchase new software during the next year.

The Civil War. Suppose a national survey conducted among a simple random sample of 1549 American adults, 802 indicate that they think the Civil War is still relevant to American politics and political life. NOTE: While performing the calculations, do not used rounded values. For instance, when calculating a p-value from a test statistic, do not use a rounded value of the test statistic to calculate the p-value. Preserve all the decimal places at each step. Enter at least 4...

Suppose a random sample of 90 U.S. companies taken in 2005 showed that 38 offered high-deductible health insurance plans to their workers. A separate random sample of 110 firms taken in 2006 showed that 59 offered high-deductible health insurance plans to their workers. Based on the sample results, can you conclude that there is a higher proportion of U.S. companies offering high-deductible health insurance plans to their workers in 2006 than in 2005? Conduct your hypothesis test at a 0.01...
