Why is 1+(-5) equal to -4

The results of a poll show that the true proportion of students who prefer the new schedule is likely in the interval (0.195,0.2

mojhsa [17]

The point estimate of the proportion of students who prefer the new schedule is 0.22.

Definition of Point Estimate

Point estimation is a technique used in statistics to determine a single value that will serve as the "best guess" or "best estimate" of an unidentified population characteristic, known as the point estimate. More precisely, in order to produce a point estimate, we apply a point estimator to the data.

For the confidence interval (0.195, 0.245), point estimate is calculated as follows,

p = (0.195 + 0.245) / 2

p = 0.44 / 2

p = 0.22

Hence, the point estimate of the proportion of students who prefer the new schedule comes out to be 2.2.

The average production cost for major movies is 57 million dollars and the standard deviation is 22 million dollars. Assume the

Degger [83]

Using the normal distribution, we have that:

The distribution of X is $X \approx (57,22)$ .

The distribution of $\mathbf{\bar{X}}$ is $\bar{X} \approx (57, 5.3358)$ .

0.0597 = 5.97% probability that a single movie production cost is between 55 and 58 million dollars.

0.2233 = 22.33% probability that the average production cost of 17 movies is between 55 and 58 million dollars. Since the sample size is less than 30, assumption of normality is necessary.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.

Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

$\mu = 57, \sigma = 22, n = 17, s = \frac{22}{\sqrt{17}} = 5.3358$

Hence:

The distribution of X is $X \approx (57,22)$ .

The distribution of $\mathbf{\bar{X}}$ is $\bar{X} \approx (57, 5.3358)$ .

The probabilities are the <u>p-value of Z when X = 58 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 55</u>, hence, for a single movie:

X = 58:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{58 - 57}{22}$

Z = 0.05.

Z = 0.05 has a p-value of 0.5199.

X = 55:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{55 - 57}{22}$

Z = -0.1.

Z = -0.1 has a p-value of 0.4602.

0.5199 - 0.4602 = 0.0597 = 5.97% probability that a single movie production cost is between 55 and 58 million dollars.

For the sample of 17 movies, we have that:

X = 58:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{58 - 57}{5.3358}$

Z = 0.19.

Z = 0.19 has a p-value of 0.5753.

X = 55:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{55 - 57}{5.3358}$

Z = -0.38.

Z = -0.38 has a p-value of 0.3520.

0.5753 - 0.3520 = 0.2233 = 22.33% probability that the average production cost of 17 movies is between 55 and 58 million dollars. Since the sample size is less than 30, assumption of normality is necessary.
