Given,
p = 0.46
So q = 1 - 0.46 = 0.54
E = 0.0657
For 95% confidence, z = 1.96
Hence,
Sample size required
n = 222

A group of business administration students conducted a survey on their college campus to find out student demand for a product, a protein supplement for fruit smoothies. One of the first steps was to extract a random sample of 237 students and obtain data that could be useful in developing their marketing strategy. If {a ratio of 0.53 students decide to drink smoothies in the afternoon. Find the margin of error for the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of...
9. A group of statistics students decided to conduct a survey at their university to find the average (mean) amount of time students spent studying per week. Assuming a population standard deviation of three hours, what is the required sample size if the error should be less than a half hour with a 99% level of confidence? 10.University officials say that at least 70% of the voting student population supports a fee increase. If the 95% confidence interval estimating the...
Suppose we wish to conduct a survey to find p, the proportion of 1st year undergraduate students who hope to attend graduate school. We'd like to be able to create a 94% confidence interval that it has a length of 0.1 (i.e. L=0.1). How many students do we need to sample if a pilot study shows that the sample proportion is 0.2? Select one: O a. 237 O b. 254 | 0 227 o ooo d. 244 e. 254 f....
We want to estimate the proportion of students who have credit card debt more than $2,000. What size sample should be obtained if we want to estimate the proportion within 3%; that is, the margin of error is 3%, with 95% confidence. a) suppose a prior study indicates that the percentage is 30% b) suppose we use no prior estimate of the percentage.
Question 15: (10 points) Suppose a consumer advocacy group would like to conduct a survey to find the proportion p of consumers who bought the newest generation of a PlayStation player were happy with their purchase. a) How large a sample n should they take to estimate p with 2% margin of error and 90% confidence? b) The advocacy group took a random sample of 1000 consumers who recently purchased this PlayStation player and found that 300 were happy with...
н Select one answer 10 points Parking survey: For a class assignment, a group of statistics students set up a table near the student parking lot. They asked students who passed by to complete a quick survey about whether they support the building of a multi- level parking structure that would add 425 new spaces at the college. They used the information from the survey to calculate the 95% confidence interval: (0,53, 0.72). To which population does the confidence interval...
5. Suppose a consumer advocacy group would like to conduct a survey to find the proportion p of consumers who bought the newest generation of an MP3 player were happy with their purchase. The advocacy group took a random sample of 1000 consumers who recently purchased this MP3 player and found that 400 were happy with their purchase. (a) Find a 95% lower bound for p (b) How large a sample size n should they take to estimate p with...
