A market research company wishes to know how many energy drinks adults drink each week. They want to construct a 80% confidence

interval for the mean and are assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 0.9. The study found that for a sample of 164 adults the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 7.9. Construct the desired confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answer:

The confidence interval = (7.8 , 8.0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval formula =

Mean ± z × Standard deviation/√n

Mean = 7.9

Standard deviation = 0.9

n = number of samples = 164

z = z score of an 80% confidence interval = 1.282

Confidence Interval = 7.9 ± 1.282 × 0.9/√164

= 7.9 ± 0.0900966432

Confidence Interval

= 7.9 - 0.0900966432

= 7.8099033568

Approximately to 1 decimal place = 7.8

7.9 + 0.0900966432

= 7.9900966432

Approximately to 1 decimal place = 8.0

Therefore, the confidence interval = (7.8 , 8.0)

Answer:

a) 0.6032

b)

Lower limit: 0.48

Upper limit: 0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Question a:

In a random sample of 63 professional actors, it was found that 38 were extroverts.

We use this to find the sample proportion, which is the point estimate for p. So

\pi = \frac{38}{63} = 0.6032

Question b:

Sample of 63 means that n = 63

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6032 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.6032*0.3968}{63}} = 0.4824

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6032 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.6032*0.3968}{63}} = 0.724

Rounding to two decimal places:

Lower limit: 0.48

Upper limit: 0.72
