Definition Review Population - a set of measurements Parameters described the characteristics of a population. Sample: a subset of measurements from the population Statistics describe the characteristics of a sample. Most of the time we do not have the entire population, we have a sample from the population. Therefore, we must use sample statistics to estimate population parameters. We use a confidence interval to estimate a population mean or a proportion.

Confidence Intervals for μ or p There are two steps 1.Find E (MoE or margin of error). 2. Find the interval.

Step 1: Compute E For large samples, n ≥ 30 (6.1): E = z c * σ / √[n] For small samples, n < 30 (6.2) E = t c * s / √[n] For proportions (6.3) E = z c * √[pq/n]

Step 2: Compute the Interval The interval has a lower number and an upper number For estimating μ x bar – E < μ < x bar + E For estimating p p hat – E < p < p hat + E

Example 1: CI for μ, n ≥ 30 n = 40 xbar = 12 σ = 5 Find the 95% CI for μ. Step 1: Find E Step 2: Find the interval Since n ≥ 30, σ known x bar – E < μ < x bar + E E = z c * σ / √[n] 12 – 1.55 < μ < E = 1.96 * 5 / √[40] < μ < E = 9.8 / E ≈ ≈ 1.55 Use the t-table, the bottom row, to find z c = 1.96 Or use CONFIDENCE in Excel to find E

Example 2: CI for μ, n < 30 n = 20 df = 19 xbar = 12 s = 5 Find the 95% CI for μ. Step 1: Find E Step 2: Find the interval n < 30, σ not known x bar – E < μ < x bar + E df = – 2.34 < μ < E = t c * s / √[n] 9.66 < μ < E = * 5 / √[20] E = / E ≈ ≈ 2.34 Use the t-table, df = 19, to find 2.093

Example 3: CI for p n = 400 p hat = 0.6, q hat = 1 – 0.6 = 0.4 Find the 95% CI for p. np hat = 240 > 5, nq hat = 160 > 5, ok to use z c Step 1: Find EStep 2: Find the interval E = z c * √[pq / n] p hat – E < p < p hat + E E = 1.96 * √ [(0.6 * 0.4) / 400] 0.6 – < p < E = 1.96 * √ [0.24 / 400] < p < E = 1.96 * E ≈ ≈ 0.048

Example 4: Choosing the Normal or t-Distribution Page 329, using the flow chart n = 25 σ = $28,000 x bar = $181,000 Normal or t-Distribution (z c or t c )? n = 18 s = $24,000 x bar = $162,000 Normal or t-Distribution?

Other Topics Finding a minimum sample size for a confidence interval Finding z c for a confidence level Interpreting a confidence interval Comparing confidence intervals for a level of 90%, 95%, and 99%

Finding a minimum sample size for a confidence interval Page 316 Find n for a 99% CI given σ ≈ s ≈ 10 and E = 3.2 n = [(z c * σ) / E] 2 n = [2.575* 10 / 3.2] 2 n = [25.75 / 3.2] 2 n = [ ] 2 n = or 65 Note: Always round up! For example, you would round 72.1 to 73 because we need at least 72.1 for the sample size.

Finding Zc for a Confidence Level Sometimes the z c for the confidence level is not provided in a table. Find the z c for an 85% CI. This z c is not in the t-table. 1/2( ) = 0.15/2 = Find the z for in the Standard Normal Table z c = or z c = 1.44 Note: Use the positive z c in the formula for E.

Interpreting a Confidence Interval Example 1. The interval we found is < μ < With 95% confidence, we can say that the population mean is between and Example 2. The interval we found is 9.66 < μ < With 95% confidence, we can say that the population mean is between 9.66 and Example 3. The interval we found is < p < With 95% confidence, we can say that the population proportion is between 55.2% and 64.8%.

Comparing confidence intervals for a level of 90%, 95%, and 99% n = 40 xbar = 12 σ = 5 For the 90% CI, E ≈ 1.30 and the interval is < μ < For the 95% CI, E ≈ 1.55 and the interval is < μ < For the 99% CI, E ≈ 2.04 and the interval is 9.96 < μ < As the confidence level increases, the interval width increases. We have greater confidence, but less precision in estimating μ.
