PART I
Wiley Publications has determined that out of a sample of 8,578 of its publications for 2012, 360 of them had been pirated online in some form. What is the estimate of the population proportion? What is the standard error of this estimate?

In a recent survey of 123 WMU graduates, 89 students said that parking was too limited on campus. What is the estimate of the population proportion? What is the standard error of this estimate?

PART III
A sample proportion is calculated from a sample size of 196. How large of a sample would we need in order to decrease the standard error by a factor of 8?

Part 1:
The point estimate of the proportion here is computed as:
p = x/n = 360/8578 = 0.042
The standard error here is computed here as:
Therefore 1) is the correct metrics here.
Part II)
Again, the point estimate of proportion here is computed
as:
p = x/n = 89/123 = 0.724
Now the standard error here is computed as:
Therefore 2) is the correct answer here.
Part III)
Note that the standard error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size. Therefore to decrease the standard error by a factor of 8, the sample size need to be increased by a factor of 82 that is the new sample size should be computed as:
= 64*196 = 12544
Therefore 4) 12544 is the required sample size here.

123 employees of your firm were asked about their job satisfaction. Out of the 123, 34 said they were unsatisfied. What is the estimate of the population proportion? What is the standard error of this estimate? Question 7 options: 1) The true population proportion is needed to calculate this. 2) Estimate of proportion: 0.276, Standard error: 0.0036. 3) Estimate of proportion: 0.276, Standard error: 0.0403. 4) Estimate of proportion: 0.724, Standard error: 0.0403. 5) Estimate of proportion: 0.724, Standard error:...
A population has standard deviation ơ-17.7. Part 1 out of 2 How large a sample must be drawn so that a 99.9% confidence interval for μ will have a margin of error equal to 1.3? Round up the answer to the nearest integer. (Round the critical value to no less than three decimal places.) A sample size of D is needed to be drawn in order to obtain a 99.9% confidence interval with a margin of error equal to 1.3...
