Answer: (0.522,\ 0.658)[

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the confidence interval is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z^*\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

, where n= sample size .

\hat{p} = sample proportion.

z* = cRitical value .

Let p be the population proportion of students who receive some financial aid.

The dean randomly selects 200 students and finds that 118 of them are receiving financial aid.

i.e. n= 200

\hat{p}=\dfrac{118}{200}=0.59

We know that the critical value for 95% confidence interval : z*= 1.96

Then, the 95% confidence interval for population proportion will be :-

(0.59)\pm (1.96)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.59(1-0.59)}{200}}

0.59\pm (1.96)\sqrt{0.0012095}

0.59\pm (1.96)(0.0347778665246)

0.59\pm0.0681646183882\approx0.59\pm0.068\\\\=(0.59-0.068,\ 0.59+0.068)\\\\=(0.522,\ 0.658)

Hence, 95% confidence interval to estimate the proportion of students on financial aid = (0.522,\ 0.658)[

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

74.5 and 64.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Women midpoints:

54.5 - 0%

64.5 - 30%

74.5 - 35% (most pulse rates from women)

84.5 - 29%

94.5 - 2%

104.5 - 2%

114.5  - 0%

124.5 - 2%

Men midpoints:

0 - 0%

54.5 - 15%

64.5 - 43% (most pulse rates from men)

74.5 - 20%

84.5 - 20%

94.5 - 2%

104.5 - 0%
