    1) The document provides steps to calculate a 95% confidence interval for a population mean based on a sample. It uses sample mean, standard error of the mean, and critical value of 1.96 to calculate a CI of (234.20, 270.70). It then states that since the value reported by AMA (215.60) falls outside this CI, we can infer the population mean differs from AMA's reported mean. 2) The document calculates z-scores and probability for two standard normal distributions based on given data points and critical z-values. 3) The document provides notation and probabilities for a simple probability problem involving success, failure, and additional requests. It then calculates a

    1)

    a) Confidence interval for population mean (Mu) is


    sample mean +/- confidence coefficient*standard error of mean
    252.45 +/- 1.96*74.50/sqrt 64
    252.45 +/- 18.25
    loweer boundary is 252.45 - 18.25 = 234.20
    upper boundary is 252.45 + 18.25 = 270.70
    The CI is ($234.20, $270.70)

    b) Since the mean reported by the AMA ($215.60) is NOT falling within the confidence interval, it can
    be inferred that the population mean amount spent per day by families visiting Niagara Falls differs
    from the mean reported by the AMA

    2)
    (630 - 450) / 100 = z
    1.8 = z

    P(z = 1.8) = 0.964069681

    P(x < 630) = 96.41% score worse


    P(x > 630) = 3.59% score better

    (480 - 450) / 100 = z

    P(z = .3) = 0.617911422

    P(x > 480) = 1 - .6179


    P(x > 480) = 38.21%

    5)

    Denote S as success, F as failure and R as additional request.


    1. P(S) = 0.5
    2. P(R|S) = 0.75
    3. P(S|R) = P(S and R) / P(R )
    = 0.5*0.75 / (0.5*0.75+ 0.5 * 0.4) = 15/23.

    a) The Margin Of error , E= ZSIGMA\oversqrtnZSIGMA\oversqrtn Here Z=1.96, sigma=550 and
    n=80 Thus, E=120.524 b) The 95% confidence interval is given by : CI=xbar ECI=xbar E Lower
    limit=1873-120.52=1752.48 Upper Limit=1873+120.52=1993.524 CI=(1752.48,1993.524) c)The average
    amountspent is 1873 by 80 people. Thus theestimate for the total is 1873*80=$149840

    For a):
    The margin of error = 1.96(sd/n)
    sd = 550
    n = 80
    1.96 represents 95% using a z-table

    For b):
    CI95 = mean + or - margin of error
    mean = 1873

    Substitute the values into the formula and calculate.

    Solution: The data with summations is given as : Yes No Total 23 and under 207 201 408 Age Grp 2426

    Person applied to more that one school B: Person is 24-26 years old C:Person is 31 years or more a)
    P(B|A) = P(A|B) * P(B) / (P(A|B)*P(B) + P(A|B')*P(B') =(299/678) *( 678/2018) / (299/678) *( 678/2018)
    + (509/1340) * (1340/2018) =0.1481 /( 0.1481+0.2523) = 0.37 b) The probability that the person applied to
    more than one school is calculated by, 51/220 = 0.2318 c) P(BUA) =P(B)+P(A)-P(A...
