A student ran a simulation of 100 trials to estimate the proportion of students who eat breakfast. The results of the simulation are shown in the graph below. The mean of the simulation is 0.62 and the standard deviation is 0.04. Based on this simulation, what is the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion?
A simulation of 500 trials was conducted to estimate the proportion of voters who support a new tax. The results of the simulation are shown in the normal distribution curve below, where the mean is 0.52 and the standard deviation is 0.03. Based on this simulation, what is the interval that contains the middle 95% of the sample proportions?
The graph below represents the distribution of sample means from a simulation. The center of the distribution is 120 and the standard deviation is 5. Which value would be outside the 95% confidence interval for the population mean?
