1. 99% = mean ± 2.575 SEm
SEm = SD/√n
2. ± 1.96 SEm
3. Find table in the back of your statistics text labeled something like "areas under normal distribution" to find the proportion/probability (.05) to get the value for the Z score.
4. Same table, but look for .10.

6. In a sample of 35 high school seniors, 14 of them are attending college in the fall. Find the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of high school seniors that will attend college in the fall from the population.
0.14 +/- (1.96)(√0.14)/(0.86)/35)
0.16436428065
0.1643 - .5/1000 = 0.1638 -.0005 = 0.1633
0.1643 + .5/1000 = 0.1648 + .0005 = 0.1653
16.33%-16.53%
7. In a sample of 200 people, 76 people would rather work out at home than in a gym. Find the 99% confidence interval for the true proportion of people who would rather work out at home than in a gym for the entire population.
0.76 +/- (2.575) ((√0.76)/(-0.24)/200)
0.71323264675
0.713 - .5/1000 = 0.7125 -.0005 = 0.712
0.713 + .5/1000 = 0.7135 + .0005 = 0.714
71.2%-71.4%
