Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for p in this case is (0.3317, 0.5883).

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}.

Randomly selects 100 students from the school and asks the President to name each one. The President is able to correctly name 46 of the students.

This means that:

n = 100, \pi = \frac{46}{100} = 0.46

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}} = 0.46 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.46*0.54}{100}} = 0.3317

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.46 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.46*0.54}{100}} = 0.5883

The 99% confidence interval for p in this case is (0.3317, 0.5883).
