question 1 (原題雲科財金考古)

Two brands of refrigerators, denote A and B, are each guaranteed for one year.

(1) In a random sample of 100 refrigerators of brand A, 20 were observed to fail before

the guarantee period.

Find a the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion.

(2) From a random sample of 400 refrigerators of brand B, a statistician constructed a confidence

interval running from 0.15 to 0.25 for the population proportion of failures.

Find the level of confidence of this interval.

question 2 (原題中興應經考古)

Winter cares about the fuel efficiency of her new car.

Assuming fuel efficiency (mpg) follows a normal distribution.

Assume she filled up the tank every month.

After the first year of driving the car, she found the mean was

24 miles per gallon (mpg) with a sample deviation of 1 mpg,

(1) construct a 95% confidence interval for her mean mpg.

(2) how many times should she fill her gas tank to obtain a margin of error below 0.05?

(hint: assume the sample size (n) is large enough)

question 3 (原題台大會研考古)

Let Xi iid N (µ1 , 25), ∀i = 1, 2, 3..., 25

Yj iid N (µ2 , 36), ∀j = 1, 2, 3..., 12 ∀Xi , Yj are mutually independent.

∑25 ∑12
i=1 Xi j=1 Yj
X= , Y =
25 12

(1) Find the sampling distribution of X − Y .

(2)If samples are drawn from these two populations, and it is observed that X = 100 and

Y = 96, utilize the results from (1) to determine the 90% confidence interval for µ1 − µ2 .

question 4

A market research company aims to estimate the average popularity level of a new product.

They want to calculate a 95% confidence interval for this average level.

Previous similar studies indicate that the standard deviation of the popularity level is

approximately 20 percentage points.

Questions:

(1)If they want the width of the confidence interval not to exceed 10 percentage points,

how large of a sample size do they need?

(2) If the company ultimately chooses to use a sample size of 100,

what is the estimated result of the 95% confidence interval?

Given the sample mean X is 60 percents.

選擇題題組:

A company is conducting market research for its new product and has
obtained the average sales volume from a random sample.
The company wishes to estimate the actual average sales volume of the product through interval estimation.
Here are some questions related to this scenario:

5. If the company wants to increase the confidence level and reduce the width of the interval estimation at the same time,
what should they do?
a. Increase the sample size
b. Decrease the sample size
c. Decrease the confidence level
d. Increase the confidence level

6. If a company estimates the interval for the average sales volume of its new product
with a confidence level of 95% as (5000, 6000), the correct interpretation is:
a. 95% of the samples fall between 5000 and 6000
b. The company’s estimate of the average sales volume is between 5000 and 6000 with 95% confidence
c. The company’s average sales volume is between 5000 and 6000 with 95% confidence
d. The company’s average sales volume is between 5000 and 6000, and this is absolutely certain

7. What is the width of an interval estimation?

a. Half of the interval
b. Upper limit minus the mean
c. Upper limit minus lower limit
d. Margin of error
