Question

2. Suppose you constructed 60 confidence intervals - by drawing 60 samples - with confidence level 95%. About how many of them would you expect to be successful? That is, how many would actu- ally contain the parameter that is being estimated? Should you be surprised if 10 of them are successful?

Step 1

This means that out of 60 confidence intervals, we would expect approximately 57 of them to be successful (60 * 0.95 = 57). Show more…

That is, how many would actually contain the parameter that is being estimated? Should you be surprised if 10 of them are successful? 2.
