A previous study found that your school consists of $60\%$ White/Caucasian students. You want the $98\%$ confidence interval for the proportion of White/Caucasian students to be no more than $.05$ away from the true proportion. How many students must you include in a sample to create this confidence interval? 

Alcohol in Children’s Movies Listed below is a simple random sample of times (seconds) that animated children’s movies showed the use of alcohol (based on Data Set 20 “Alcohol and Tobacco in Movies” in Appendix B).

b. Are the requirements for constructing a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population standard deviation satisfied? If so, construct that confidence interval.

Controversial Song The song “Baby It’s Cold Outside” generated much controversy because of its lyrics and tone. CBS New York conducted a survey by asking viewers to use the Internet to respond to a question asking whether that song was really too offensive to play. Among 1043 Internet users who chose to respond, 986 said that the song was not too offensive, and 57 of the respondents said that the song was too offensive.

a. Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of the population having the belief that the song is not too offensive.

Over the first $20$ days of the semester, one student is late to class on $6$ days. Find the margin of error for a $98\%$ confidence interval for the true proportion of time this student is late.

Over the first $20$ days of the semester, one student is late to class on $6$ days. Construct a $98\%$ confidence interval for the true proportion of time this student is late. 

You wish to estimate with $90\%$ confidence the population proportion of people in Gen-Z that use social media. If you want your estimate to be accurate within $4\%$ of the population proportion, what is the minimum sample size needed? 

Your company has asked you to estimate the proportion of people who prefer the color red over other primary colors for manufacturing purposes. If they want the estimate to be within $.01$ of the true proportion with $95\%$ confidence, how many people should you survey?  

You want to make a $97\%$ confidence interval for the population proportion of people between $20-30$ years old who have gotten a speeding ticket in the past $2$ years. A prior study found that $26\%$ of people between $20-30$ years old have received a speeding ticket in the last year. If you want your estimate to be accurate within $3\%$ of the true population proportion, what is the minimum sample size needed? 

Arm Circumferences Arm circumferences of adult men are normally distributed with a mean of 33.64 cm and a standard deviation of 4.14 cm (based on Data Set 1 “Body Data” in Appendix B). A sample of 25 men is randomly selected and the mean of the arm circumferences is obtained.

b. What is the mean of all such sample means?
