Bootstrap Sample Given the sample data from Exercise 2, which of the following are not possible bootstrap samples?

a. 12, 19, 13, 43, 15

b. 12, 19, 15

c. 12, 12, 12, 43, 43

d. 14, 20, 12, 19, 15

e. 12, 13, 13, 12, 43, 15, 19

Short Answer

Expert verified

Parts b, d, and e are not possible bootstrap samples.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

Refer to Exercise 2, for the American Airlines flights leaving JFK airport, the sample of taxi-out times (min) is taken is given as:12, 19, 13, 43, 15

02

Describe the criteria of the bootstrap sample

Criteria of bootstrap sampling are stated as follows:

1. The sample size of the bootstrap sample needs to be the same as the sample size of the original data set.

2. The bootstrap sample should be drawn with replacement from an original sample.

3. All the observation values of the bootstrap sample should come from an original data set.

03

Check whether the samples are possible bootstrap samples or not

The original sample is 12, 19, 13, 43, 15, and the sample size of this sample is 5.

a. The given sample is 12, 19, 13, 43, 15 and sample size of this sample is 5.

The given sample is the same as the original sample. More importantly, the sample size is the same as the sample size of the original data and all the numbers are taken from the original data set.

Therefore, this is a bootstrap sample.

b. The given sample is 12, 19, 15 and the sample size of this sample is 3.

All the numbers of this sample are taken from the original data set but the sample size of this the sample is not the same as the original sample.

Therefore, this is not a bootstrap sample.

Critical Thinking. In Exercises 17鈥�28, use the data and confidence level to construct a

confidence interval estimate of p, then address the given question. Fast Food AccuracyIn a study of the accuracy of fast food drive-through orders, Burger King had 264 accurate orders and 54 that were not accurate (based on data from QSRmagazine).

a.Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentageof orders that are not accurate.

b.Compare the result from part (a) to this 99% confidence interval for the percentage of orders that are not accurate at Wendy鈥檚: 6.2%<p< 15.9%. What do you conclude?

Critical Thinking. In Exercises 17鈥�28, use the data and confidence level to construct a confidence interval estimate of p, then address the given question.

Nonvoters Who Say They Voted In a survey of 1002 people, 70% said that they voted in a recent presidential election (based on data from ICR Research Group). Voting records show that 61% of eligible voters actually did vote.

a. Find a 98% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of people who say that they voted.

b. Are the survey results consistent with the actual voter turnout of 61%? Why or why not?

Celebrities and the Law Here is a 95% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who say that the law goes easy on celebrities: 0.692 <p< 0.748 (based on data from a Rasmussen Reports survey). What is the best point estimate of the proportion of adults in the population who say that the law goes easy on celebrities?

In Exercises 9鈥�16, assume that each sample is a simple

random sample obtained from a population with a normal distribution.

Comparing Waiting Lines

a. The values listed below are waiting times (in minutes) of customers at the Jefferson Valley Bank, where customers enter a single waiting line that feeds three teller windows. Construct a95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation .

6.5 6.6 6.7 6.8 7.1 7.3 7.4 7.7 7.7 7.7

b. The values listed below are waiting times (in minutes) of customers at the Bank of Providence, where customers may enter any one of three different lines that have formed at three teller windows. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation .

4.2 5.4 5.8 6.2 6.7 7.7 7.7 8.5 9.3 10.0

c. Interpret the results found in parts (a) and (b). Do the confidence intervals suggest a difference in the variation among waiting times? Which arrangement seems better: the single-line system or the multiple-line system?

Sample Size. In Exercises 29鈥�36, find the sample size required to estimate the population mean.

Mean IQ of Attorneys See the preceding exercise, in which we can assume that for the IQ scores. Attorneys are a group with IQ scores that vary less than the IQ scores of the general population. Find the sample size needed to estimate the mean IQ of attorneys, given that we want 98% confidence that the sample mean is within 3 IQ points of the population mean. Does the sample size appear to be practical?
