A farmer wants to test the effectiveness of a pest control method in allowing strawberry blooms to yield marketable strawberries. Of a random sample of 100 blooms,77 yield marketable strawberries. Is this evidence that two thirds or more of all blooms grown with this pest control method end up as marketable strawberries? The 95%large-sample confidence interval for the proportion of blooms that yield marketable strawberries is: A. 0.77± 0.042 B. 0.77±0.082 C. 0.77±0.0034 D. 0.77±0.0017G5

A research group studying cell phone habits asked the question “Do you ever use your cell phone to make a payment at a convenience store?” to people selected from two random samples of cell phone users. One sample consisted of older adults, ages 35 years and older, and the other sample consisted of younger adults, ages 18 years to 34 years. The proportion of people who answered yes in each sample was used to create a 95 percent confidence interval of (0.097,0.125)(0.097,0.125) to estimate the difference (younger minus older) between the population proportions of people who would answer yes to the question. Which of the following is the best description of what is meant by 95 percent confidence? In repeated random sampling with the same sample size, approximately 95% of the sample proportions from the younger group will be between 0.097 and 0.125 greater than the sample proportion from the older group. A In repeated random sampling with the same sample size,…
