3.  About 13% of the United States population is left-handed.  Suppose that a researcher speculates that individuals with schizophrenia are more likely to be left-handed than the US population.  The researcher surveys 104 individuals with schizophrenia and finds that 22 of them are left-handed.  Based on this sample, is there enough evidence that the population proportion of individuals with schizophrenia who are left-handed is more than the 13% (or 0.13).  Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of individuals with schizophrenia who are left-handed. (b) What is the sample size (n) for the confidence interval?

6.  Disney World’s Animal Kingdom is a family theme park in Orlando, Florida. One of its longest rides, “Kilimanjaro Safaris,” has a ride time that is normally distributed with a mean of μ = 14 minutes and a standard deviation of σ = 3 minutes.  If the ride lasts more than 18.5 minutes, it is considered too long and the manager must decrease the ride time. (a)  What is the probability that it takes a park guest more than 18.5 minutes to complete the “Kilimanjaro Safaris” ride?
