Statistics: Confidence intervals and Binomial
      We continued discussion of confidence intervals today, for 90%, 95%, and 99% confidence levels.  In addition, we talked about using the sample standard deviation instead of the population standard deviation in the formula for determining a confidence interval.
We also discussed properties of binomial experiments, what makes up a binomial experiment, and the difference between dependent and independent events.
The notes in the book for these two chapters are quite excellent and superior to any notes I could post here since they also come with explanations.
Homework is p. 205 #20,22,27 p. 211 #28,29,30 (assume sample size of 30) p.216 #1,2,3
There will be a quiz on Monday on ch.5.1, 5.2, and 5.3. A summary has been posted in class.
