Solution :
1) Given that,
n = 100
x = 25
Point estimate = sample proportion = = x / n = 25 / 100 = 0.25
1 -
= 1 - 0.25 = 0.75
At 95% confidence level
= 1 - 95%
=1 - 0.95 =0.05
/2
= 0.025
Z/2
= Z0.025 = 1.960
Margin of error = E = Z
/ 2 * ((
* (1 -
))
/ n)
E = 1.96 (((0.25
* 0.75) /100 )
E = 0.085
2) Given that,
n = 600
x = 358
Point estimate = sample proportion = = x / n = 358 / 600 = 0.5967
1 -
= 1 - 0.5967 = 0.4033
At 95% confidence level
= 1 - 95%
=1 - 0.95 =0.05
/2
= 0.025
Z/2
= Z0.025 = 1.960
Margin of error = E = Z
/ 2 * ((
* (1 -
))
/ n)
= 1.96 (((0.5967
* 0.4033) /600 )
= 0.03925
A 95% confidence interval for population proportion p is ,
± E
= 0.5967 ± 0.03925
=( 0.5574, 0.6359 )
