Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related Pre CAL.177 Create and Interpret Confidence Intervals skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A 95% confidence interval for the difference in true population proportions, p_1 - p_2, for who submit homework on time (Group 1 minus Group 2) is (0.01, 0.18). What does the 95% confidence level mean?

AAbout 95% of repeated studies would produce the exact same endpoints 0.01 and 0.18.

BAbout 95% of all individuals in both groups combined have the outcome.

CThe probability that p_1 - p_2 is inside (0.01, 0.18) is 95%.

DIf the study were repeated many times, about 95% of the intervals computed for p_1 - p_2 would contain the true difference in proportions.

Solution & Explanation:The correct choice is D. Confidence level refers to the long-run success rate of the interval procedure for estimating the difference in proportions. It is not the probability for this particular interval.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

A 98% confidence interval for the difference in true population means, μ_E - μ_G, for noise level (electric mower minus gas mower) is (3, 10) decibels. What does the 98% confidence level mean?

AAbout 98% of the mean values from electric mower and gas mower fall between 3 and 10 decibels.

BThe probability that μ_E - μ_G is in (3, 10) is 98%.

CIn repeated studies using the same method, about 98% of the computed intervals for μ_E - μ_G would contain the true difference in means.

DAbout 98% of studies would get exactly the interval (3, 10) decibels.

Solution & Explanation:The correct choice is C. The confidence level describes the long-run capture rate for intervals estimating the difference in means. It is not the chance the parameter is in this one interval.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

A random sample of 561 from approach A and 252 from approach B was used to estimate the difference in true population proportions, p_A - p_B, for who pass the unit test (approach A minus approach B). A 98% confidence interval is (-0.18, -0.01). Which statement best interprets this interval?

AWe are 98% confident that each group's true proportion is between -0.18 and -0.01.

BWe are 98% confident that the true difference in proportions (approach A minus approach B) is between -0.18 and -0.01.

CThere is a 98% probability that p_A - p_B is between -0.18 and -0.01.

DAbout 98% of individual people/items pass the unit test at a rate between -0.18 and -0.01.

Solution & Explanation:The correct choice is B. This interval estimates a difference in population proportions (group A minus group B). It does not give separate intervals for each group and it is not a probability for the parameter. Watch for options that ignore the word 'difference' or confuse individuals with proportions.
