The amount of time adults spend watching television is closely
monitored by firms because this helps to determine advertising
pricing for commercials. Complete parts (a) through (b).
(a) According to a certain survey, adults spend 2.25 hours
per day watching television on a weekday. Assume that the standard
deviation for "time spent watching television on a weekday" is
1.93 hours. If a random sample of 60 adults is obtained, describe
the sampling distribution of x overbar, the mean amount of time
spent watching television on a weekday.
Does x overbar have a
a uniform distribution
is approximately normal
with mu Subscript x overbarequals
nothing and sigma Subscript x overbarequals
nothing.
(Round to six decimal places as needed.)
(b) Determine the probability that a random sample of 60
adults results in a mean time watching television on a weekday of
between 2 and 3 hours.
The probability is
nothing. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)

The following data represent the pH of rain for a random
sample of 12 rain dates in a particular region. A normal
probability plot suggests the data could come from a population
that is normally distributed. A boxplot indicates there are no
outliers. The sample standard deviation is s equals 0.318.
Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the standard
deviation pH of rainwater in this region.

A survey of 2287 adults in a certain large country aged 18 and
older conducted by a reputable polling organization found that 429
have donated blood in the past two years. Complete parts
(a) through (b).
(a) Obtain a point estimate for the population proportion of
adults in the country aged 18 and older who have donated blood in
the past two years.
p^ equals _
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
(b) Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval for
the population proportion of adults in the country who have donated
blood in the past two years. Select the correct choice below and
fill in any answer boxes within your choice.
A. We are _% confident the proportion of adults in the
country aged 18 and older who have donated blood in the past two
years is between _ and _
B. There is a _% probability the proportion of adults in the
country aged 18 and older who have donated blood in the past two
years is between _ and _

According to a study conducted by a statistical organization,
the proportion of people who are satisfied with the way things are
going in their lives is 0.82. Suppose that a random sample of 100
people is obtained. Complete parts (a) through (b) below.
(a) Describe the sampling distribution of ModifyingAbove p
with caret, the proportion of people who are satisfied with the
way things are going in their life. Be sure to verify the model
requirements.
Since the sample size is

than 5% of the population size and np(1minusp)equals
nothinggreater than or equals10, the distribution of
ModifyingAbove p with caret is
▼
with mu Subscript ModifyingAbove p with caret Baseline
equals
nothing and sigma Subscript ModifyingAbove p with caret
Baseline equals
nothing.
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
(b) In the sample obtained in part (a), what is the
probability that the proportion who are satisfied with the way
things are going in their life exceeds 0.86?
The probability that the proportion who are satisfied with the
way things are going in their life exceeds 0.86 is
