A random sample of 100 registered voters in Columbia SC was selected for a phone survey. The key question was "Do You Approve or Disapprove of Governor McMaster’s Job Performance?" Assume the population proportion that approve of the Governor’s performance is known to be 55%. (a) (5 points)
Describe the shape of the sampling distribution. How do you know it is this shape?
Find the mean and standard deviation for the distribution of the sample proportion pˆ of voters who approve of the Governor’s performance.

In March 2015, the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC) surveyed 7525 likely voters living in California. This is the 148th PPIC research poll, and is part of a survey series that started in 1998. PPIC researchers find that 3266 survey participants are registered Democrats and 2137 survey participants are registered Republicans. PPIC is interested in the difference in approval rate for the governor between registered Democrats and registered Republicans in California. Participants were asked: “Overall, do you approve or...

A recent study by the Pew Research Center asked U.S. adults about the qualities it was most important for parents to impart to children. Respondents at different points on the ideological spectrum disagreed on many of these qualities, with conservatives stressing faith and liberals stressing tolerance, for example. But let’s concentrate on one everyone agreed on: Most said it was “especially important” to teach children responsibility (they also agreed on independence, hard work and good manners). Let’s assume that 93%...

In a survey of 500 likely voters, 271 responded that they would vote for the incumbent and 229 responded that they would vote for the challenger. Let pp denote the fraction of all likely voters who preferred the incumbent at the time of the survey, and let p^p^ be the fraction of survey respondents who preferred the incumbent. a. Construct a 95% confidence interval for pp. Keep in mind that you should calculate the standard error making no assumptions of...
