Consider the next 1000 95% CIs for ? that a statistical consultant will obtain for various clients. Suppose the data sets on which the intervals are based are selected independently of one another. How many of these 1000 intervals do you expect to capture the corresponding value of ?? intervals What is the probability that between 940 and 960 of these intervals contain the corresponding value of ?? [Hint: Let Y = the number among the 1000 intervals that contain ?. What kind of random variable is Y?] (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Suppose the population standard deviation is known. Suppose we take four independent samples and report a 95% confidence interval for the population mean μ for each set of data. What is the probability that all four confidence intervals contain the true population mean μ (rounded to four decimal places)? (Remember to express your answer as a proportion.)

Using a computer or calculator, randomly select a sample of 40 single-digit numbers and find the $90 \%$ confidence interval for $\mu .$ Repeat several times, observing whether or not 4.5 is in the interval each time. Refer to Example $8.4,$ page $352 .$ Describe your results.
