A public relations manager for a political candidate would like to update their estimate of the proportion of registered voters in the district who agree with the politician on a particular issue. Find the sample size necessary for the public relations manager to estimate the true proportion to within .03 with 95% confidence. Suppose that previously, 31% of the district agreed with the politician on this issue.

8. A campaign researcher would like to estimate the proportion of registered voters that will vote for his candidate. He runs a poll each week asking registered voters their candidate preference and calculates a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true proportion of registered voters that will vote for his candidate. On week 39 his confidence interval was (0.52, 0.56). On week 40 (the last week of the campaign) he wants to conduct one final poll. He would like his...

Suppose that a particular candidate for public office is in fact favored by 49% of all registered voters in the district. A polling organization will take a random sample of 750 voters and will use p̂, the sample proportion, to estimate p. What is the approximate probability that p̂ will be greater than 0.5, causing the polling organization to incorrectly predict the result of the upcoming election? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
