Get started for freeThe data in the Table are the result of a random survey of national flags (with replacement between picks) from various countries. We are interested in finding a confidence interval for the true mean number of colors on a national flag. Let the number of colors on a national flag.
Construct a confidence interval for the true mean number of colors on national flags.
Calculate the following:
a. lower limit
b. upper limit
c. error bound
Using the same pโฒ and level of confidence, suppose that n were increased to 100. Would the error bound become larger
or smaller? How do you know?
In words, define the random variables and .
