Question

Express the confidenceinterval using the indicate format the confidence interval are based on the proportion of red,orange,yellow,and blue M&M in data set 27 M&M weight in appendix B

Red M&M express 0.0434<p<0.217 in the form of p^+_E

Answer 1

The Upper Limit = + ME = 0.434 ---- (1)

The Lower Limit = - ME = 0.217 ----- (2)

Adding (1) + (2), we get 2 * = 0.651. Therefore = 0.651/2 = 0.3255

Subtracting (1) - (2), we get 2 * ME = 0.217. Therefore ME = 0.217/2 = 0.1085

Therefore the CI in the form of ME = 0.3255 0.1085
