Refer to the accompanying data set of 20 randomly selected presidents. Treat the data as a sample and find the proportion of presidents who were taller than their opponents. Use that result to construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population percentage. Based on the result, does it appear that greater height is an advantage for presidential candidates? Why or why not? Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of presidents who were taller than their opponents.

The International Nanny Association (INA) reports that in a sample of 928 in- home child care providers (nannies), 128 have passed the INA Nanny Credential Exam (2014 International Nanny Association Salary and Benefits Survey). A. Use Wilson’s adjustment to find a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all nannies who have passed the INA certification exam. B. We want to decide whether the proportion of who passed the INA certification exam exceeds than .12 answer both a and b.
Suppose that a safety group surveyed 1,100 drivers. Among those surveyed, 65% said that careless or aggressive driving was the biggest threat on the road, and 25% said that cell phone usage by other drivers was the driving behavior that annoyed them the most. Based on these data and assuming that the sample was a simple random sample, construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval estimate for the true proportion in the population of all drivers who are annoyed by cell phone users. The confidence interval estimate is ??––––––??> (Round to three decimal places as needed. Use ascending order.) Interpret the confidence interval estimate. A. There is a 0.95 probability that the population proportion of drivers who are annoyed by cell phone users is in the interval. B. There is 95% confidence that the population proportion of drivers who are annoyed by cell phone users is in the interval. C. There is 95% confidence that the population proportion…
