Try to get a population proportion for left-handed people. I'll use presidents of U.S. for my sample. There were 8 presidents that were left-handed, and we've had 45 total presidents.
If you can do it, find the 90% confidence interval, and the 80% confidence interval. Compare your lower limits to the real estimated value that 10% of the population is left-handed.

OD Suppose that 12% of the population of the U.S. is left-handed. If a random sample of 130 people from the U.S. is chosen, approximate the probability that at most 14 are left-handed. Use the normal approximation to the binomial with a correction for continuity. Round your answer to at least three decimal places. Do not round any intermediate steps. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)

We will be using Excel to simulate the number of left-handed people in a particular sample. Left-handed people make up about 10% of the population. We will randomly pick numbers between 1 and 10, where 1 represents a left-handed person and 2 - 10 represents a right-handed person. This should result in about 10% of our sample being left-handed. Please note there are five parts to this question. 1. Create a pie graph in Excel to show the proportion of...

The proportion of left-handed people in the general population is about 0.10. To simulate this population, we constructed a collection in which p = 0.10. We then conducted four simulations, drawing random samples of different sizes from this collection.

A poll conducted in 2013 found that the proportion of of U.S. adult Twitter users who get at least some news on Twitter was 0.52. The standard error for this estimate was 0.024, and a normal distribution may be used to model the sample proportion. 1. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of U.S. adult Twitter users who got some news on Twitter. Round to four decimal places. to 2.

Suppose the U.S. president wants to estimate the proportion of the population that supports his current policy toward revisions in the health care system. The president wants the estimate to be within 0.03 of the true proportion. Assume a 90% level of confidence. The president’s political advisors found a similar survey from two years ago that reported that 40% of people supported health care revisions. (Use z Distribution Table.) How large of a sample is required? (Round up your answer...
