The result of a biology test was collected, and the grades and gender are summarized below A B C Total Male 5 4 17 26 Female 6 2 15 23 Total 11 6 32 49 Let p p represent the proportion of all female students who would receive a grade of A on this test. Use a 99.5% confidence interval to estimate p p to three decimal places. Enter your answer as a tri-linear inequality using decimals (not percents).

99.5% Confidence interval = (-0.025, 0.547)

= -0.025 < p < 0.547

Step-by-step explanation:

             | A | B | C | Total

Male      | 5 | 4 | 17 | 26

Female | 6 | 2 | 15 | 23

Total     | 11 | 6 | 32 | 49

If p represent the proportion of all female students who would receive a grade of A on this test. Use a 99.5% confidence interval to estimate p to three decimal places.

All female students = 23

Female students that score an A = 6

p = (6/23) = 0.2608695652 = 0.261

Confidence Interval for the population proportion is basically an interval of range of values where the true population proportion can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± (Margin of error)

Sample proportion = (6/23) = 0.261

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error)

Critical value at 99.5% confidence interval for sample size of 23 is obtained from the t-tables since information on the population standard deviation is not known.

we first find the degree of freedom and the significance level.

Degree of freedom = df = n - 1 = 23 - 1 = 22.

Significance level for 99.5% confidence interval

(100% - 99.5%)/2 = 0.25% = 0.0025

t (0.0025, 22) = 3.119 (from the t-tables)

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = √[p(1-p)/N]

p = 0.261

N = sample size = 23

σₓ = √(0.261×0.739/23) = 0.091575

99.5% Confidence Interval = (Sample proportion) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error)]

CI = 0.261 ± (3.119 × 0.091575)

CI = 0.261 ± 0.2856

99.5% CI = (-0.0246, 0.5466)

99.5% Confidence interval = (-0.025, 0.547)

= -0.025 < p < 0.547

Hope this Helps!!!
