Description
Assume the population proportion is to be estimated from the sample described. Find the approximate margin of error and the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion. Sample size=289, Sample proportion=0.28 (Round four decimal places)
Explanation & Answer
Thank you for the opportunity to help you with your question!
The Formula for the Margin of Error.
E = zα/2/(2√ n) where E is the error we require, we need to standardize the data
alpha is 0.05.we divide by 2 to get 1.96/(2*289*0.5)=0.05765 about 5.76% error
confidence interval
-0.022<0.28<0.3376
