Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of donors who donated is (0.0547, 0.0585).

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:

n = 100000, \pi = \frac{5066}{100000} = 0.0566

99% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.0566 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.0566*0.9434}{100000}} = 0.0547

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.0566 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.0566*0.9434}{100000}} = 0.0585

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of donors who donated is (0.0547, 0.0585).
