    A random sample of 250 employed people found that 61 said they bring work home occasionally. A 98% confidence interval was constructed for the population proportion of employed people who bring work home occasionally. The sample proportion was 61/250 = 0.244. The 98% confidence interval coefficients are ±2.326. The 98% confidence interval for the population proportion is 0.244 ± (2.326)(√(0.244(1-0.244)/250)) = 0.244 ± 0.048 = 0.196 to 0.292.

    A. In order to estimate the mean amount of damage sustained by vehicles when a deer is struck, an insurance
    company examined the records of 50 such occurrences, and obtained a sample mean of $2,785 with sample
    standard deviation $221. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of damage in all such
    accidents.
