Confidence Interval

Confidence Interval

Average score=100. Std. Deviation =24. Probability that for a sample size
64, sample mean of scores would be between 92 and 108.

In case of two Population Means

Reject H0

Estimate average scores of clients. Sample 64. Mean 107. Sample std.
deviation 18. Make a 75% confidence interval for the true mean score.
If we have confidence interval of 75%:
=1-Confidence interval
=1-0.75=0.25

x = # of people in favor or against
n = Total Number

The true mean falls in an interval between (104.41,109.59)

More precision, limiting Error to 1. How many samples are needed?
z/2 (/n)= 1 > n= (z
429-64= 365 more samples are needed to limit error to 1.

Hypothesis Testing
H0: =100 > Always equals
H1: >100 > The opposite of what im trying to test
=100 (number they are asking me to check for);
=0.05 (Significance Level); s=18; n=64; x=107;
c=critical value; If i don't have s then use .
Method 1) c =
Method 2) z = (x -
z
You look for 0.95 in Z table = 1.64
Reject H0

Method 1) Since x = 107 > 103.63, we reject the null hypothesis.

Method 2) Since according to table: 3.11 > 1.64
What if you have two samples?
H0: 0 = 2
H1: 1 2
z/2(s21 1
The critical Interval becomes (-6.47,6.47). Given that
x1 - x2 = 115 -105 = 10 and 10 is outside the critical Value, we reject.
