(b) 95.5% Confidence Intervals


95.5% CI of population = x 2
Hence:

95.5% CI of field rating =[43.64 2 7.61, 43.64 + 2 7.61]


=[28.42, 58.86]
95.5% CI of productivity rating =[37.8 2 8.56, 37.8 + 2 8.56]
=[20.68, 54.92]
95.5% CI of 5 minute rating =[34.72 2 1.966, 34.72 + 2 1.966]
=[30.79, 38.65]

(c) Interpreting the Confidence intervals for a foreman


(i) 95.5 percent of the times the productivity of your crew is between 28.42 to 58.86 percent.
(ii) 95.5 percent of the times productivity of your crew is between 20.68 to 54.92 percent.
(ii) 95.5 percent of the times your crew is 30.79 to 38.65 percent effective.
