Exp You are looking at a population and are interested in the proportion p that has a certain characteristic. Unknown to you, this population proportion is p=0.65. You have taken a random sample of size n-105 from the population and found that the proportion of the sample that has the characteristic is p=0.67. Your sample is Sample 1 in the table below. (In the table, Sample 1 is written "S1", Sample 2 is written "52", etc.) (a) Based on Sample 1, graph the 75% and 90% confidence intervals for the population proportion. Use 1.150 for the critical value for the 75% confidence interval, and use 1.645 for the critical value for the 90% confidence interval. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas) • Enter the lower and upper limits on the graphs to show each confidence interval. Write your answers with two decimal places . For the points (and), enter the population proportion, 0.65. 75% confidence interval 90% confidence interval E 0.49 0.82 0.49 0.32 065 0.65 ****** 0.49 0.82 0.49 0.82 (b) Press the "Generate Samples" button below to simulate taking 19 more samples of size -105 from the same population. Notice that the confidence intervals for these samples are drawn automatically. Then complete parts (c) and (d) below the table. 75% 75% 90% 90% lower upper lower upper limit limit limit limit 7 75% confidence intervals 00% confidence intervals 51 0.67 ? ? 7 0.58 0.74 52 066 061 031

0.49 0.82 0.49 0.82 18 (c) Notice that for -90% of the samples, the 90% confidence interval contains the population proportion. Choose the 20 correct statement. When constructing 90% confidence intervals for 20 samples of the same size from the population, exactly 90% of the samples will contain the population proportion. When constructing 90% confidence intervals for 20 samples of the same size from the population, at most 90% of the samples will contain the population proportion. When constructing 90% confidence intervals for 20 samples of the same size from the population, it is possible that more or fewer than 90% of the samples will contain the population proportion, (d) Choose ALL that are true. The 75% confidence interval for Sample 7 is narrower than the 90% confidence interval for Sample 7. This must be the case; when constructing a confidence interval for a sample, the greater the level of confidence, the wider the confidence interval. To guarantee that a confidence interval will contain the population proportion, the level of confidence must match the population proportion. For example, if p equals 0.48, then a 48% confidence interval will contain the population proportion. From the 90% confidence interval for Sample 7, we know that there is a 90% probability that the population proportion is between 0.49 and 0.82. If there were a Sample 21 of size 180 with the same sample proportion as Sample 7, then the 90% confidence interval for Sample 21 would be narrower than the 90% confidence interval for Sample 7. None of the choices above are true. ?
