1. 1-Proportion Z-interval test
x: 763
n: 3914
C-Level: .99
Calculate:
(.179, .211)
p: .195
= 2.576

. 195 (1 .195)
3914

= .01631
Margin of Error: (.195 .016)
Using the Equation Editor: . 211 .179 = .032
.032
2

= .016

Critical Value: invNorm (.995)= 2.575

2. T-Interval
x: 61.15625
Sx: 8.008366161
n: 64
C-Level: .95
Calculate:
(59.156, 63.157)
= 1.96

8.008

64
= 1.962

Margin of Error:
63.157 59.156 = 4.001

4. A. We are 99% confident that if we got a random bag of skittles that that bag would
contain between 17.9% to 21.1% would be yellow skittles.
B. We are 95% confident that if we got a random regular sized bag of skittles that there
would contain between 59 and 64 skittles.
C. We are 98% confident that if we got a random regular sized bag of skittles that the
standard deviation of that bag would be between 6.8085 and 10.4543.
