In a review of her grading, she found the mean score out of 100 poin... ts was a x¯=77, with a margin of error of 10. Construct a confidence interval for the mean score (out of 100 points) on the final exam.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-bookThe pages per book in a library are normally distributed with an unknown population mean. A random sample of books is taken and results in a 95% confidence interval of (237,293) pages. What is the correct interpretation of the 95% confidence interval?The population standard deviation for the heights of dogs, in inches, in a city is 3.7 inches. If we want to be 95% confident that the sample mean is within 2 inches of the true population mean, what is the minimum sample size that can be taken? Round up to the nearest integerClarence wants to estimate the percentage of students who live more than three miles from the school.
