Recall the formula for a proportion confidence interval is
p^?zp^(1?p^)n?????????<p<p^+zp^(1?p^)n?????????
Thus, the margin of error is E=zp^(1?p^)n????????? .
NOTE: the margin of error can be recovered after constructing a confidence interval on the calculator using algebra (that is, subtracting p^ from the right endpoint.)
In a simple random sample of size 59, taken from a population, 20 of the individuals met a specified criteria.
a) What is the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval for p, the population proportion?
b) What is the margin of error for a 95% confidence interval for p?
NOTE: These margin of errors are greater than .10 or 10%.
c) How big of a sample is needed to be certain that we have a margin of error less than .10 (or 10%) at 90% confidence?
d) How big of a sample is needed to be certain that we have a margin of error less than .10 (or 10%) at 95% confidence?

To calculate a confidence interval, the margin of error (E) must first be calculated. The Margin of Error, E, for means is: E = 1.96*s/sqrt(n), where s is the sample standard deviation, n is the sample size. The “sqrt” stands for square root. The Margin of Error, E, for proportions is: E = 1.96*sqrt[p*(1-p)/n], where s is the sample standard deviation, n is the sample size, and p is the proportion. Use the Confidence Interval formula above, and the correct...
