It is decided that tomorrow a sample of 20 bricks will be taken.
 
  Without doing the calculations, explain whether a correctly calculated 95 confidence interval for the mean weight of tomorrow's output would be wider than, narrower than, or the same width as that of a 99 confidence interval for the mean weight of all bricks produced this day.

Question 2

In a goodness-of-fit-test, suppose that the value of the test statistic is 13.08 and degrees of freedom = 6. At the 5 significance level, the null hypothesis is:
 
  A) rejected, and p-value for the test is smaller than 0.05.
  B) not rejected, and p-value for the test is greater than 0.05.
  C) rejected, and p-value for the test is greater than 0.05.
  D) not rejected, and p-value for the test is smaller than 0.05.
