Question 1

A retired statistician was interested in determining the average cost of a $200,000.00 term life insurance policy for a 60-year-old male non-smoker. He randomly sampled 65 subjects (60-year-old male non-smokers) and constructed the following 95 percent confidence interval for the mean cost of the term life insurance: ($850.00, $1050.00). What value of alpha was used to create this confidence interval?
◦ 0.05
◦ 0.10
◦ 0.01
◦ 0.025

Question 2

Suppose (1,000, 2,100) is a 95% confidence interval for μ. To make more useful inferences from the data, it is desired to reduce the width of the confidence interval. Explain why an increase in sample size will lead to a narrower interval of the estimate of μ.
