- Audio cassette tapes of a particular brand are claimed by the manufacturer to give, on average, at least 60 minutes of playing time. After receiving some complaints, the manufacturer’s quality control manager obtains a random sample of 64 tapes and measures the playing time, t minutes, of each. The results are summarized by∑t=3953.28 and ∑t²=244,557.00 Construct a symmetric 99% confidence interval for the population mean playing time of the brand of tape.Does the confidence interval support the customer’s complaints? Give a reason for your answer.Hospitals must keep enough antibiotics on hand to treat infectious diseases. Researchers want to determine whether the infectious disease rate is higher in some months than in others. To find out, researchers took a sample of 192 hospital patients in January and found 32 were being treated for an infectious disease. In an independent sample of 403 patients admitted in May, 34 were treated for an infectious disease. Find a 90% confidence interval for the difference in the infectious disease admission rates in January and in May. a. (.035, .153) b. (.033, .133) c. (.066, .179) d.

An employee of the firm surveys a random sample of 65 people who have hired the firm that week to help them find employment. She asks them whether they were late for work more than 2 times a month, on average, in their last position. Of the 65 people, 17 respond that they were late for work more than 2 times a month, on average, in their last position. The employee constructs a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of workers who were late for work more than 2 times a month, on average, in their last position and obtains the interval (0.160, 0.385). Which of the following is the best example of a source of error that may cause the interval not to contain the true proportion of workers who were late more than 2 times a month, on average, in their last position? A. The sample only is representative of the people who hired the firm that week, and other workers may be…
