I think the correct answers are A, and C because you have to multiply to find the answers. The others will divide to find the answers.

Answer:

A sample size of 79 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

For this problem, we have that:

$\pi = 0.21$

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

What sample size is needed if the research firm's goal is to estimate the current proportion of homes with a stay-at-home parent in which the father is the stay-at-home parent with a margin of error of 0.09?

A sample size of n is needed.

n is found when M = 0.09. So

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.09 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.21*0.79}{n}}$
