A researcher in campaign finance law wants to estimate the proportion of elementary, middle, and high school teachers who contributed to a candidate during a recent election cycle. Given that no prior estimate of the population proportion is available, what is the minimum sample size such that the margin of error is no more than 0.03 for a 95% confidence interval?

What proportion of JMU students like online courses? To estimate this, a random sample of 200 students was taken and found that 50 of them like online courses. (1) Are the assumptions for constructing a confidence interval for the population proportion satisfied? Explain.(2) Construct a 99% confidence interval for the population proportion of JMU students who like online courses.(3) What is the margin of error in (2) ?______________(4) Interpret the 99% confidence interval.

Suppose two researchers want to estimate the proportion of American college students who favor abolishing the penny. They both want to have about the same margin of error to estimate this proportion. However, Researcher 1 wants to estimate with 99% confidence and Researcher 2 wants to estimate with 95% confidence. Which researcher would need more students for her study in order to obtain the desired margin of error? Researcher 1 Researcher 2 Both researchers would need the same number of...

A random sample of elementary school children in New York state is to be selected to estimate the proportion ?p who have received a medical examination during the past year. An interval estimate of the proportion p with a margin of error of 0.035 and 99% confidence is required. (a) Assuming no prior information about p^ is available, approximately how large of a sample size is needed? n= b) If a planning study indicates that p^ is around 0.70.7, approximately how large...
A market researcher wants to conduct a survey to estimate the population proportion who prefer Coca-Cola...
A market researcher wants to conduct a survey to estimate the population proportion who prefer Coca-Cola to Pepsi. Before conducting the survey, the researcher wants to choose a sample size so that the half width of the 99% confidence interval is no more than 2%, regardless what he will find. What is the required sample size? Hints: recall that we only deal with "large n" population proportion questions in the class, so use the Z distribution. Also recall that the...

Question 19 (5 points) A pollster wants to construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adults who believe that economic conditions are getting better. A Gallup poll taken in July 2010 estimates this proportion to be 0.33. Using this estimate, what sample size is needed so that the confidence interval will have a margin of error of 0.039? Write only an integer as your answer. Your Answer: Answer Question 20 (5 points) A researcher wants to construct a...

A) A certain region would like to estimate the proportion of voters who intend to participate in upcoming elections. A pilot sample of 25 voters found that 17 of them intended to vote in the election. Determine the additional number of voters that need to be sampled to construct a 95ā% interval with a margin of error equal to 0.06 to estimate the proportion. The region should sample ____ additional voters. B) Determine the sample size needed to construct a...
