You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable estimate for the

population proportion, so we assume p=.5. You would like to be 99% confident that you estimate is within 0.2% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required?

Answer:

416025

Step-by-step explanation:

For confidence interval of 99%, the range is (0.005, 0.995). Using a z-table, the z-score for 0.995 is 2.58.

Margin of error = 0.2% = 0.002.

Proportion is unknown. So, worse case proportion is 50%. p = 50% = 0.5.

\\ n = \left(\frac{\texttt{z-score}}{\texttt{margin of error}} \right )^2\cdot p\cdot (1-p) \\ = \left(\frac{2.58}{0.002} \right )^2\cdot 0.5\cdot (1-0.5)=416025

So, sample size required is 416025.

Help quickly! A student wants to report on the number of movies her friends watch each week. The collected data are below:

1.The measure of center that is most appropriate for this situation is the MEDIAN. This is because, one of the number given is an outlier, that is, it is much greater than the rest of the given numbers. If the mean of the number given is calculated, it will be discovered that the mean value obtained is higher than most of the scores in the data set, thus,the mean is not a suitable measure of central tendency in this case.
2. To find the median of the given numbers, arrange them in a descending order and add the two numbers in the middle then divide the value by 2.
That is, 0, 0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 14.
The two numbers in the middle is 1 and 2.
 Median = [1 + 2] / 2 = 3/2 = 1.5
Therefore, the median is 1.5

How do you solve this
arlik [135]
The answer is 1,800, you would multiply 5 by 10 which is 50 then t would be 50 to the 4th power 50 times 4 is 200. then you do the same on the other side 3 time 10 which is 30 to the second power which is 90 than you multiply 200 and 90 because when you have two parentheses next to each other you always multiply but when you do that your answer turns out to be 1,800
