Answer:

  1. The lowest value of the confidence interval is 0.5262 or 52.62%
  2. The highest value of the confidence interval is 0.5538 or 55.38%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you estimate the proportion of people in the population that said did not have children under 18 living at home.It can also be given as a percentage.

The general expression to apply here is;

C.I=p+-z*\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }

where ;

p=sample proportion

n=sample size

z*=value of z* from the standard normal distribution for 95% confidence level

Given;

n=5000

<u>Find p</u>

From the question 54% of people chosen said they did not have children under 18 living at home

\frac{54}{100} *5000 = 2700\\\\p=\frac{2700}{5000} =0.54

<u>To calculate the 95% confidence interval, follow the steps below;</u>

  • Find the value of z* from the z*-value table

The value of z* from the table is 1.96

  • calculate the sample proportion p

The value of p=0.54 as calculated above

  • Find p(1-p)

0.54(1-0.54)=0.2484

  • Find p(1-p)/n

Divide the value of p(1-p) with the sample size, n

\frac{0.2448}{5000} =0.00004968

  • Find the square-root of p(1-p)/n

=\sqrt{0.00004968} =0.007048

  • Find the margin of error

Here multiply the square-root of p(1-p)/n by the z*

=0.007048*1.96=0.0138

The 95% confidence interval for the lower end value is p-margin of error

=0.54-0.0138=0.5262

The 95% confidence interval for the upper end value is p+margin of error

0.54+0.0138=0.5538

Answer: 0.5262 - 0.5538

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1) Find the standard deviation with the given information:

n=5000

p=54% ⇒ 0.54

1-p = 1 - 0.54 = 0.46

\sigma =\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}\\\\\\.\ =\sqrt{\dfrac{0.54(0.46)}{5000}}\\\\\\.\ =\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2484}{5000}}\\\\\\.\ =\sqrt{0.00004968}\\\\\\.\ =0.007048

2) Find the margin of error (ME) with the given information:

C=95% ⇒ Z = 1.960

σ=0.007048

ME = Z × σ

     = 1.96 (0.007048)

     = 0.01381

3) Find the confidence interval with the given information:

p = 0.54

ME = 0.01381

C = p ± ME

    = 0.54 ± 0.01381

    = (0.5262, 0.5538)
