### A 95% confidence interval implies that Group of answer choices with repeated sampling, 95% of the intervals constructed would contain the parameter of interest. There is a 95% probability of capturing the parameter of interest within our interval. 95% of the data lies with our interval. None of the above. In reality, the factor(s) to be considered when assessing if the Central Limit Theorem holds is/are Group of answer choices the shape of the distributions of the original variable. The sample size. Both of the above. None of the above; we only need $$\displaystyle{n}\geq{30}{n}\geq{30}$$. Select all that apply. The z-distribution Group of answer choices has a mean of zero. Is a normal distribution. Has a standard deviation of 1. Has an infinite number of distributions.

### Learning math The Core Plus Mathematics Project (CPMP) is an innovative approach to teaching Mathematics that engages students in group investigations and mathematical modeling. After field tests in 36 high schools over a three-year period, researchers compare the performances of CPMP students with those taught using a traditional curriculum. In one test, students had to solve applied Algebra problems using calculators. Scores for 320 CPMP students were compared to those of a control group of 273 students in a traditional Math program. Computer software was used to create a confidence interval for the difference in mean scores. (Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, 31, no. 3[2000]) Conf level: 95% Variable: Mu(CPMP) – Mu(Ctrl) Interval: (5.573, 11.427) a) What’s the margin of error for this confidence interval? b) If we had created a 98% CI, would the margin of error be larger or smaller?c) Explain what the calculated interval means in context. d) Does this result suggest that students who learn Mathematics with CPMP will have significantly higher mean scores in Algebra than those in traditional programs? Explain.

### Suppose that you want to perform a hypothesis test based on independent random samples to compare the means of two populations. For each part, decide whether you would use the pooled t-test, the nonpooled t-test, the Mann– Whitney test, or none of these tests if preliminary data analyses of the samples suggest that the two distributions of the variable under consideration are a. normal but do not have the same shape. b. not normal but have the same shape. c. not normal and do not have the same shape. both sample sizes are large.

### Continuous Probability Distributions The data records the length of stay of engineering students in the university. We will assume a uniform distribution between 5 to 7 years, inclusive. What is the probability that a randomly chosen engineering student will stay at most 6 years?

### Presenting data in the form of table. For the data set shown by the table, Solve, a) Create a scatter plot for the data. b) Use the scatter plot to determine whether an exponential function, a logarithmic function, or a linear function is the best choice for modeling the data. (If applicable, you will use your graphing utility to obtain these functions.) $$\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline \text{Intensity (wattd per}\ meter^{2}) & \text{Loudness Level (decibels)} \\ \hline 0.1\text{(loud thunder)} & 110 \\ \hline 1\text{(rock concert, 2 yd from speakers)} & 120 \\ \hline 10 \text{(jackhammer)} & 130 \\ \hline 100 \text{(jet take off, 40 yd away)} & 140 \\ \hline \end{array}$$
