Question 1054795: 1. A regeneration survey has indicated that 75 of the 90 plots examined were stocked.
a) Find the 99% confidence limits for the fraction of the total area being stocked.
b) How large a sample is needed if we wish to be 95% confident that our sample proportion will be within 0.05 of the true fraction?
2. Another survey from another area indicated 75% stocking from 100 plots. Is this different from the area described in Question 1? Use 90% and 95% confidence limits.

p = 75/90 = 5/6 and q = 1/6
99%
a. ME = = �
5/6 - ME < < 5/6 + ME
b. n = =
2. Yes: p = 75/100 = 3/4 and q = 1/4
follow steps in a above for z = 1.645 and z = 1.96
|
= CI z = value
90% z =1.645
92% z = 1.751
95% z = 1.96
98% z = 2.326
99% z = 2.576
