8. (9 pts) Suppose that we want to construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the percentage of voters who would vote a candidate. We suggest that approximately 46% would vote for the candidate. Suppose that we want the margin of error for the confidence interval is no more than 1%. Determine how large the sample size should be.

6. We want to determine the sample size for estimating the population proportion p that would vote for candidate A with a 95% confidence interval and a margin of error of no greater than 2 %. What is the sample size given that we have no fore knowledge so that p should be a value of 0.5 or 50%?

We want to construct a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of all adult males who have spent time in prison, with a margin of error of 0.02. From previous studies, we believe the proportion to be somewhere around 0.07. The required sample size is, therefore: Select one: a. 620 b. 626 c. 632 d. 670

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...
