You are a statistician and wish to estimate, with 90% confidence, the proportion of adults who will vote during an election. Your estimate must be accurate within 2.5% of the population proportion. Find the minimum sample size needed, using a prior study that found that 73% of the respondents said they voted during the last election.

a. You wish to compute the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion. How large a sample should you draw to ensure that the sample proportion does not deviate from the population proportion by more than 0.12? No prior estimate for the population proportion is available. Round intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and "z" value to 3 decimal places. Round up your answer to the nearest whole number.) Sample Size - b. A business student is interested...

Answer 23-24 You wish to estimate with 97% confidence, and within 3.5% of true population the proportion of computers that need repairs by the time the product is three years old. 23. No preliminary estimate is available, find the minimum sample size. [961] 24. Find the minimum sample size if a previous study found 19% of computers need repairs within 3 years. [592 computers]

You wish to estimate, with 95% confidence the population proportion of motor vehicle fatalities that were caused by alcohol-impaired driving. Your estimate must be accurate within 5% of the population proportion. a) Find the minimum sample size required when no preliminary estimate is available. b) Find the minimum sample size required using a prior survey that found that 31% of motor vehicle fatalities were caused by alcohol impaired driving.

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.

5) You now need to estimate with 90% confidence the population proportion of the amounts of financial aid that are at least $10,000. You randomly sample the population of financial aid awards that you are studying. You then record whether the amount of the award is at least $10,000. The results of that sampling process are shown in appendix two below. Using this information, construct the required confidence interval and explain its meaning. Appendix Two: (Award is at least $10,000?)...

(2 points) The following Exercise is based on summary statistics rather than raw data. This information is typically all that is presented in published reports. You can calculate inference procedures by hand from the summaries. Use the conservative Option 2 (degrees of freedom the smaller of n 1 and n2 -1 for two-sample t confidence intervals and P-values. You must trust that the authors understood the conditions for inference and verified that they apply This isn't always true.) Equip male...

1. You measure 42 textbooks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 47 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 3.5 ounces. Based on this, construct a 90% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight. Give your answers as decimals, to two places 2.If n=16, ¯xx¯(x-bar)=43, and s=13, construct a confidence interval at a 99% confidence level. Assume the data came from a normally distributed population. Give your answers to one decimal place. 3.SAT scores are...
