Answer:

The sample proportion minus the margin of error is greater than 0.05, which provides evidence that more than half of all likely voters plan to vote for candidate Taylor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample proportion is 55%

margin of error is E = 3%

Confidence interval = (p-E) to (p+E)

= (55-3) to (55+3)

= 52% to 58%

Lower limit is above 50%, which means that the candidate Taylor has majority of votes in his favor.

Answer:

It's not possible to reach a conclusion about who will vote candidate Taylor because this is a random sample and not a population census or experiment.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is impossible to reach a conclusion about the proportion of all likely voters who plan to vote for candidate Taylor because the 1,000 likely voters in the sample represent only a small fraction of all likely voters in a large city.

Consider the hypothetical study described below. Based solely on the information​ given, do you have reason to question the resu
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

(B) ​Yes, there is reason. The TV audience might not be representative of the population.

(E) ​Yes, there is reason.​ Call-in polls tend to be biased.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information given we might consider two answers.

The first answer is:

<em>(B) ​Yes, there is reason. The TV audience might not be representative of the population.</em>

Let's remember that for a sample to be representative of a population must be random and every person must have the same probability of being selected. Here, the question is targeted only to the TV show's audience, so the results can only be interpreted for this segment of the population.

<em>(E) ​Yes, there is reason.​ Call-in polls tend to be biased.</em>

The risk is that the people who call might be influenced by the show itself and would not give an unbiased answer. This creates a bias on the sample. Besides, as stated before, not all the elements of the population can be part of the sample.
