1. The mean output of an amplifier is 181 watts. It has σ = 10 watts. If 98 amplifiers are sampled, what is the probability that the average output is between 178.9 and 183.1 watts?
2. Suppose that 56% of students at a university are in the College of Business. A sample of 803 students is taken. What is the probability that the sample proportion of students in the College of Business is greater than 53%?
3. Given a confidence interval for a population mean of 11.78 < µ < 21.96, determine the original point estimate for the interval and the margin of error.
4. A chemist would like a margin of error for his experiment on chemical viscosity to be no more than 0.6217. How large a sample must he use if σ = 0.858 and he would like to have a 95% confidence level?
5. When must a critical t value be used rather than a critical z value?
