If you select a random sample of 15 items from a large batch in
which there 10% defective items, what is the chance you find more
than one defective items in the sample?
A random sample of 15 items is drawn from a population whose
standard deviation is unknown. The sample mean is x¯ = 760 and the
sample standard deviation is s = 20. Use Appendix D to find the
values of Student’s t.
(a) Construct an interval estimate of μ with 99% confidence.
(Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
The 99% confidence interval is from _____ to ______
(b) Construct an interval estimate of μ with 99% confidence,
assuming that...
If a random sample of 100 items is taken from a population in
which the proportion of items having a desired attribute is p=0.45,
what is the probability that the proportion of successes in the
sample will be less than or equal to 0.49
The probability will be ____
If a random sample of 125 items is taken from a population in
which the proportion of items having a desired attribute is p =
0.16, what is the probability that the proportion of successes in
the sample will be more than 0.2?
13.If a random sample of 125 items is taken from a population in

the sample will be more than 0.2?
You select a random sample of n=1600 tires from an ongoing
production process in which 8 percent of all such tires produced
are defective. What is the probability that 150fewer tires will be
defective? (normal distribution to approximate the
binomial)
Suppose you take a random sample of 30 individuals from a large
population. For this sample, the sample mean is 4.2 and sample
variance is 49. You wish to estimate the unknown population mean
µ.
(a) Calculate a 90% confidence interval for µ.
(b) Calculate a 95% confidence interval for µ.
(c) Based on (a) and (b), comment on what happens to the width
of a confidence interval (increase/decrease) when you increase your
confidence level.
(d) Suppose your sample size...
A random sample of 36 individuals were selected from the batch
of products to estimate a feature of interest. Suppose that the
sample mean is 125 and the standard deviation for this batch is
assumed to be 24.
a) construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean value for
this feature of the batch.
b) if we want to make the sampling error +/- 7, how many more
individuals should be selected to achieve a confidence level
95%?
c) based...
As a sample of what you know about equilibrium, select THREE
items from this list and discuss how each of them pertains to
equilibrium: Colligative properties, Free Energy, Batteries,
Temperature, pH.
If
a random sample of 100 items is taken from a population in which
the proportion of items having a desired attribute is p=0.30, what
is the probability that the proportion of successes in the sample
will be less than or equal to 0.34?The probabilty will be ___.
simple random sample of 80 items from a population with = 8

two decimal places. a. Provide a 90% confidence interval for the
population mean. to b. Provide a 95% confidence interval for the
population mean. to c. Provide a 99% confidence interval for the
population mean. to
