Answer:

( a ) 463 " human resource professionals " believe that the appearance of a job applicant is most important for a good first impression

( b )  Percent wise the confidence interval should be from about 86.6% to 93.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe these first two parts here is sufficient enough to get you started!

" In a Harris poll of 514 human resource professionals, 90% said that the appearance of a job applicant is most important for a good first impression. Part A: Among the 514 human resource professionals who were surveyed, how many of them said that the appearance of a job applicant is most important for a good first impression?

Part B: Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of all human resource professionals believing that the appearance of a job applicant is most important for a good first impression. "

_____

( a ) We are given that n = 514, and p = 90%. The number of human resource professionals that said that the appearance of a job applicant is most important for a good first impression, should be the following -

514 x \frac{90}{100}

= \frac{46260}{100}

= 462.6

As the count of people can't be expressed as a fraction, the solution should be about 463 " human resource professionals. "

_____

( b ) Here the confidence level is 0.99 percent. Knowing that -

1 - ∝ = 0.99,

∝ = 1 - 0.99... = 0.01

Therefore, a 99% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of all human resource professionals believing that the appearance of a job applicant is most important for a good first impression should be calculated as directed in the attachment. By that the interval ranges as such -

0.8659 < p < 0.9341

And percent wise the confidence interval should be from about 86.6% to 93.4%

To turn a decimal into a fraction move the decimal point two spots over (Ex: 0.34=34%). To turn a fraction into a decimal get the denominator to 100 by multiplying both the top and bottom by whatever number needed (must both be multiplied by the same number) or divide to top number into the bottom number of you can’t multiply.
