MATH 225N WEEK 6 QUIZ STATISTICS- QUESTION AND ANSWERS




Question 1
A statistics professor recently graded final exams for students in her introductory statistics course. In a review
of her grading, she found the mean score out of 100 points was a x¯=77, with a margin of error of 10.

That is correct!

Answer: (67, 87)



Question 2
A random sample of adults were asked whether they prefer reading an e-book over a printed book. The
survey resulted in a sample proportion of p′=0.14, with a sampling standard deviation of σp′=0.02, who
preferred reading an e-book.

Use the empirical rule to construct a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of adults who prefer e-
books.
