ANSWER
The correct answer is option B
EXPLANATION
The equations are
and
When we multiply the second equation by , we obtain;
When we combine this new equation with equation (1).
We can see that has been eliminated from the equation.
We can then, solve for and then substitute the result in to any of the equations to find
.
Hence the correct answer is option B
Given:
n = 150, sample size
Denote the sample proportion by q (normally written as
).
That is,
q = 60/150 = 0.4, sample proportion.
At the 96% confidence level, the z* multiplier is about 2.082, and the confidence interval for the population proportion is
![q \pm z^{*}[ \frac{q(1-q)}{ \sqrt{n} } ]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=q%20%5Cpm%20z%5E%7B%2A%7D%5B%20%5Cfrac%7Bq%281-q%29%7D%7B%20%5Csqrt%7Bn%7D%20%7D%20%5D)
That is,
0.4 +/- 2.082* √[(0.4*0.6)/150]
= 0.4 +/- 0.0833
= (0.3167, 0.4833)
= (31.7%, 48.3%)
Answer: The 96% confidence interval is about (32% to 48%)
