Assignment
-Interpret a confidence interval
-Interpret a confidence interval in context.
-Understand that a confidence interval gives a
range of plausible values for the parameter.
-Understand why each of the three inference
conditions – Random, Normal, and
Independent – is important
-Example how practical issues like
nonresponse, undercoverage, and response
bias can affect the interpretation of a
confidence interval
-Construct and interpret a confidence interval
for a population proportion
-Determine critical values for calculating a
confidence using a table or your calculator.
-Carry out steps in constructing a confidence
interval for a population proportion: define
the parameter; check conditions; perform
calculations; interpret results in context
-Determine the sample size required to obtain
a level C confidence interval for a pop. prop
with a specified margin of error
-Understand how the MOE of a conf interval
changes with the sample size & the level of
confidence C
-Understand why each of the 3 inference
conditions is important
-Construct and interpret a confidence interval
for a population mean.
-Determine the sample size required to obtain
a level C confidence interval for a pop mean
w/a specified MOE
-Carry out the steps in constructing a
confidence interval for a pop mean
-Understand why each of the 3 inference
conditions—Random, Normal, and
Independent—is important
