Simple Random Sample

Solve the problem.
A newspaper article about the results of a poll states: “In theory, the results of such a poll, in 99 cases out of 100 should differ by no more than 5 percentage points in either direction from what would have been obtained by interviewing all voters in the United States.” Find the sample size suggested by this statement.

Question

Use the confidence level and sample data to find a confidence interval for estimating the population mu. Round your answer to the same number of decimal places as the sample mean.
Test scores: n = 92, mean = 90.6, sigma = 8.9; 99% confidence (Points : 5)
88.4 < mu < 92.8
88.8 < mu < 92.4
88.2 < mu < 93.0
89.1 < mu < 92.1
 

Question

Question

Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population mean mu. Use the given confidence level and sample data to find the margin of error. Assume that the sample is a simple random sample and the population has a normal distribution. Round your answer to one more decimal place than the sample standard deviation.

Question

Use the given degree of confidence and sample data to construct a confidence interval for the population mean mu. Assume that the population has a normal distribution.
A laboratory tested twelve chicken eggs and found that the mean amount of cholesterol was 225 milligrams with s = 15.7 milligrams. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content of all such eggs. (Points : 5)
215.0 mg < mu < 235.0 mg
216.9 mg < mu < 233.1 mg
214.9 mg < mu < 235.1 mg
215.1 mg < mu < 234.9 mg
