Solution to Question SixI. An example of estimation of population meanA producer wishes to determine the mean daily output level for his products. He selects a sample of 100 days and determines the average output is 112 tones. Past experience has shown that the population standard deviation is 50 tones. Determine the interval in which the mean lies at 95% level of confidence interval.sd=50 n=100 mean=12µ=112±1.96 ()102.2≤µ≤128.8 Therefore the producer is 95% confident that the mean daily output lies between 102.2 and 121.8II.
An example of estimation of population proportionOut of the patients data a certain doctor treated, 45% never died. If a sample of 80 patients is selected from this population of patients, what is the probability that more than 40 patients never died?π=0.45 1-π=0.55 n=80 P==0.5ᵶ==0.89 therefore area is 0.3133P(x>0.5)=0.5-0.3133=0.18670.1867*100%=18.67%Works CitedKendall, M.
