a sample of 17 college graduates resulted in a mean starting salary of $38,000 and a st. dev. of $1700. Assuming the starting salaries are normally distributed the 99% confidence interval for the mean starting salary of all college graduate is: (), ()
In a sample of seven cars, each car was tested for nitrogen-oxide emissions (in grams per mile) and the following results were obtained: 0.06, 0.11, 0.16, 0.15, 0.14, 0.08, 0.15 (based on data from the Environmental Protection Agency). Assuming that this sample is representative of the cars in use, construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean amount of nitrogen-oxide emission for all cars.
In a survey of 500 potential jurors, one study found that 350 were regular watchers of at least one crime-scene forensics television series. Assuming that it is reasonable to regard this sample of 500 potential jurors as representative of potential jurors in the United States, use the given information to construct a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of potential jurors who regularly watch at least one crime-scene investigation series.
The National Sporting Goods Association found that 34% of Americans surveyed had gone swimming during the year. Assuming that the survey included a simple random sample of 1200 persons, construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of Americans who went swimming during the year.
