a. Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion p. Find the 95% confidence interval for a sample of size 198 with 42 successes. Enter your answer as an open-interval (i.e., parentheses) using decimals (not percents) accurate to three decimal places. 95% C.I. = b. A political candidate has asked you to conduct a poll to determine what percentage of people support her. If the candidate only wants a 0.5% margin of error at a 99% confidence...
You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population proportion is approximately p = 72%. You would like to be 99% confident that your esimate is within 5% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required? n= Do not round mid-calculation. Use a critical value accurate to three decimal places.
You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable estimate for the population proportion. You would like to be 99% confident that your esimate is within 1% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required? n =
You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable preliminary estimation for the population proportion. You would like to be 99% confident that you estimate is within 3% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required? n =

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population proportion is approximately 17%. You would like to be 99% confident that your estimate is within 1% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required? n =
You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable preliminary estimation for the population proportion. You would like to be 99% confident that you estimate is within 2% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required? Hint: Textbook Video [+] N-
The estimate of the population proportion is to be within plus or minus .05, with a 99 percent level of confidence. The best estimate of the population proportion is .12. How large a sample is required? (Round up your answer to the next whole number.) Sample size
You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population proportion is approximately p = 0.78. You would like to be 99% confident that your esimate is within 4% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?
