Some species of garter snakes have a much higher proportion of males than females. A biologist wants to test the hypothesis that 75% of a certain species' population is male, believing the actual proportion to be higher. In a sample of 200 snakes, 162 were male, leading to a sample proportion of ?̂ =0.81 or 81%. Because there were more than 15 successes and failures for this test, a binomial approximation to the normal distribution was used. The following test...

A survey of 1084 Californian males (age 18 and over) indicated more than half did not have a physical exam or blood cholesterol check. A medical researcher plans to sample men in the local community to see if similar results occur. How large a random sample would he need to estimate this proportion to within 0.05 and probability of 0.95?
