4-step practice questions

1. Suppose we are interested in finding out the proportion of the population at


Northside that have seen The Office. We contact an SRS of 100 students in the
school. Of these 100 students, 63 report seeing The Office. Find a 95%
confidence interval for the true proportion of Northside students who have seen
The Office.

2. Ms. Cleveland has been running around the track at Bear Pen Park in
Cleveland. She keeps track of each lap time (in seconds) and has found that they
follow an approximately normal distribution. A random sample of 9 laps shows a
s
mean laptime of x̄ = 102.4 seconds with a standard deviation of x = 3.2
seconds. Create a 90% confidence interval for Ms. Cleveland’s average lap time.
