Contingency Table
A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear re…
Binomial Distribution
Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

Answer to Problem 74E

It is not appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.

Explanation of Solution

In the statement (a) the population sample is equal to the total population thus population mean can be calculate directly.

Hence, it is not appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.

(b)

To determine

Check whether it would be appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.

Answer to Problem 74E

It is not appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.

Explanation of Solution

In statement (b) the sample taken are not random. Thus construction of the confidence interval is not possible.

Hence, it is not appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.

(c)

To determine

Check whether it would be appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.

Answer to Problem 74E

It would be appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.

Explanation of Solution

To find a confidence interval three conditions should be satisfied. Conditions are Random, Independent and Normal.

Since the sample are collected randomly thus, the condition of random is satisfied.

The sample size is less than 10% of the population size thus the condition for independent is satisfied.

The condition for normal is also satisfied since the sample size larger than 30.

Hence, it would be appropriate to construct a one sample t interval to estimate the population mean.
