1 Warm Up A 2005 survey of 1000 randomly selected adults asked their most favorite and least favorite subjects in school. The most popular choice in both categories was math! 23% chose math as their favorite while 37% chose math as their least favorite. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of adults who feel math is their most favorite subject.

2 Practice Find t* using both Table B and the InvT command on your graphing calculator. 1) 90% confidence level and n = 15 2) 96% confidence level and n = 25 3) 99% confidence level and n = 45 4) 98% confidence level and n = 70

3 Example Imagine we took a sample of 30 randomly selected students here at Leland and measured the amount of time they spent on homework on a given night. The sample data is: Mean = 2.05 hours Std dev = 0.75 hours Construct a 95% confidence interval for the value of m, the mean time that all Leland students spend on homework.

4 Practice A 2014 survey conducted at Baylor University found that 164 randomly selected undergraduates spent an average of 528 minutes on their cell phones on a daily basis. The standard deviation was 163 minutes. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the value of m, the mean time undergraduate students at Baylor spend on their cell phones per day.

5 Practice The following data is the egg weight (in grams) for a random sample of 10 eggs taken from the same farm (Indian Journal of Poultry Science, 2009). If possible, use this data to construct a 90% confidence interval for the value of m, the mean weight of all eggs from the farm
