(2) 120 pts] In a survey of 400 likely voters, 215 responded that they would vote for the incumbent and 185 responded that they would vote for the challenger. Let p denote the fraction of all likely voters who preferred the incumbent at the time of the survey, and let p be the fraction of survey respondents who preferred the incumbent. (a) Use the survey results to estimate p. (b) Use the estimator of the variance of p, p(1 -p)/n,...
20 pts] In a survey of 400 likely voters, 215 responded that they would vote for the incumbent and 185 responded that they would vote for the challenger. Let p denote the fraction of all likely voters who preferred the incumbent at the time of the survey, and let p be the fraction of survey respondents who preferred the incumbent. (g) Construct a 95% confidence interval for p. (h) Construct a 99% confidence interval for p. (i) Why is the...
In a survey of 500 likely voters, 271 responded that they would vote for the incumbent and 229 responded that they would vote for the challenger. Let pp denote the fraction of all likely voters who preferred the incumbent at the time of the survey, and let p^p^ be the fraction of survey respondents who preferred the incumbent. a. Use the survey results to calculate p^p^. b. Test the hypothesis H0:p=0.5 vs. Ha:p≠0.5H0:p=0.5 vs. Ha:p≠0.5 at the 5% significance level....
In a survey of 500 likely voters, 271 responded that they would vote for the incumbent and 229 responded that they would vote for the challenger. Let pp denote the fraction of all likely voters who preferred the incumbent at the time of the survey, and let p^p^ be the fraction of survey respondents who preferred the incumbent. a. Construct a 95% confidence interval for pp. Keep in mind that you should calculate the standard error making no assumptions of...
A polling firm called 1,000 likely voters to ask about their political preferences. Of those polled, 520 indicated that they would vote for the incumbent candidate. Determine the point estimate for the proportion of voters in the election district who will vote for the incumbent.What is the sampling distribution for p in this example?Approximately how many voters must be polled for a margin of error equal to .01, assuming a confidence level of 95%?

43% of a certain country's voters think that it is too easy to vote in their country. You randomly select 12 likely voters. Find the probability that the number of likely voters who think that it is too easy to vote is (a) exactly three, (b) at least four, (c) less than eight. (a) P(3)- (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Only 14% ofregistered voters voted in the last election will voter participation change for the upcoming election? Of the 369 randomly selected registered voters surveyed, 63 of them will vote in the upcoming election. What can be concluded at the α-0.01 level of significance? a. For this study, what sampling distribution would be used? Select an answer b-The null and alternative hypotheses would be: (please enter a decimal) Hİ : [pvi-[ (Please enter a decimal) c. The test statistic? d....
In a survey of 1000 eligible voters selected at random, it was found that 100 had a college degree. Additionally, it was found that 70% of those who had a college degree voted in the last presidential election, whereas 45% of the people who did not have a college degree voted in the last presidential election. Assuming that the poll is representative of all eligible voters, find the probability that an eligible voter selected at random will have the following...
In a survey of 1000 eligible voters selected at random, it was found that 200 had a college degree. Additionally, it was found that 90% of those who had a college degree voted in the last presidential election, whereas 46% of the people who did not have a college degree voted in the last presidential election. Assuming that the poll is representative of all eligible voters, find the probability that an eligible voter selected at random will have the following...
Prior to a local election, you would like to estimate the percentage of voters that are in favor of a 4% increase in gasoline sales tax in order to generate enough revenue for street repair. You decide to take a random sample of 400 local voters to see if at least 60% of voters support this initiative. Use this information to answer question 1a to 1e. (Hint: recall that for a Bernoulli random variable, the standard deviation is p(1 –...
