how healthy are the employees at direct marketing industry? a random sample of 12 employees was taken, and the number of days each was absent for sickness was recorded (for a 1-year period). use these data to create a 95% confidence interval for the population mean days absent for sickness.

Sagot :

The sample mean is 5.0833 and the standard deviation is 3.476 and the confidence interval is (2.87, 7.29).

In the given question, a random sample of 12 employees was taken, and the number of days each was absent for sickness was recorded (for a 1-year period).

Using these data to create a 95% confidence interval for the population mean days absent for sickness

2   5   3   7   10   0   6   8   5   11   3   1

a) We have to find the sample mean and the standard deviation (round to two decimal places).

The sample mean;

X = 2+5+3+7+10+0+6+8+5+11+3+1/12

X = 61/12

X = 5.0833

Now the standard deviation

SD = √[{x(1)-X)^2+(x(2)-X)^2…………….(x(12)-X)^2}/N]

After solving using that formula;

SD = 3.476

b) 95% confidence in interval for the population mean days absent for sickness.

Lower Bound = X - t(α/2)*s/√n

Upper Bound = X + t(α /2)*s/√n

where

α /2 = (1 - confidence level)/2 = 0.025

X = sample mean = 5.083333333

t(α/2) = critical t for the confidence interval = 2.20098516

s = sample standard deviation = 3.476108936

n = sample size = 12

df = n - 1 = 11

Thus,

Lower bound = 2.874719086

Upper bound = 7.291947581

Thus, the confidence interval is (2.87, 7.29).
