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 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…
An epidemiologist is worried about the prevalence of the flu in East Vancouver and the potential shortage of vaccines for the area. She will need to provide a recommendation for how to allocate the vaccines appropriately across the city. She takes a simple random sample of 339 people living in East Vancouver and finds that 40 have recently had the flu. For each of the following statements, specify whether the statement is a correct interpretation of the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of East Vancouver residents who have recently had the flu. A. 11.80% (40/339) of East Vancouver residents have recently had the flu.  ? true false  B. There is a 95% probability that the true proportion of East Vancouver residents who have recently had the flu equals 40/339.  ? true false  C. If another random sample of 339 East Vancouver residents is drawn, there is a 95% probability that the sample proportion of East Vancouver residents who have recently had the flu equals 40/339.  ?…
2)The manager for a contractual ride-share company wants to construct a control chart for determining whether 10-drivers are under control with regard to the number of complaints filed. Accordingly, the manager sampled 100 reviews from last year for each driver, with the following results: Driver                          Number of Complaints 1                                                                 8 2                                                                 18 3                                                                 21 4                                                                 6 5                                                                 17 6                                                                 15 7                                                                 19 8                                                                 5 9                                                                 23 10…
