Algebra.Com's Answer #670430 by stanbon(75887) ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion p. Find the margin of error E that corresponds to the given statistics and confidence level. Round the margin of error to four decimal places. \n" ); document.write( "95% confidence; n = 420, x = 150 \n" ); document.write( "---- \n" ); document.write( "Note: p = x/n = 150/420 = 0.357 ; q = 1-p = 0.643 \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "ME = z*sqrt[p*q/n] \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "ME = 1.96*sqrt[0.357*0.643/420] = 0.0458 \n" ); document.write( "------------------ \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "------------ \n" ); document.write( " |
