Since 1936, the Gallup Organization has been asking Americans: "Are you in favor of the death penalty for a person convicted of
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

98% confidence interval for the proportion of all American females who support the death penalty for convicted murders is [0.59 , 0.64].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the results of the most recent survey; in a sample of 3100 females, 62% said that they were in favor of the death penalty for convicted murders.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 98% confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

                                 P.Q. =  \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of females who were in favor of the death penalty for convicted murders = 62%

n = sample of females = 3100

p = population proportion of all American females who support the death penalty

<em>Here for constructing 98% confidence interval we have used One-sample z proportion statistics.</em>

<u>So, 98% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;</u>

P(-2.33 < N(0,1) < 2.33) = 0.98  {As the critical value of z at 1% level

                                                   of significance are -2.33 & 2.33}  

P(-2.33 < \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < 2.33) = 0.98

P( -2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < {\hat p-p} < 2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ) = 0.98

P( \hat p-2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < p < \hat p+2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ) = 0.98

<u>98% confidence interval for p</u> = [ \hat p-2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } , \hat p+2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ]

= [ 0.62-2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.62(1-0.62)}{3100} } } , 0.62+2.33 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.62(1-0.62)}{3100} } } ]

 = [0.59 , 0.64]

Therefore, 98% confidence interval for the proportion of all American females who support the death penalty for convicted murders is [0.59 , 0.64].
