A candidate for a US Representative seat from Indiana hires a polling firm to gauge her percentage of support among voters in he

Answer:

(A) The minimum sample size required achieve the margin of error of 0.04 is 601.

(B) The minimum sample size required achieve a margin of error of 0.02 is 2401.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the percentage of support for the candidate, among voters in her district, is 50%.

(A)

The margin of error, MOE = 0.04.

The formula for margin of error is:

$MOE=z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

The critical value of z for 95% confidence interval is: $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Compute the minimum sample size required as follows:

$MOE=z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}\\0.04=1.96\times \sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{n}}\\(\frac{0.04}{1.96})^{2} =\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{n}\\n=600.25\approx 601$

Thus, the minimum sample size required achieve the margin of error of 0.04 is 601.

(B)

The margin of error, MOE = 0.02.

The formula for margin of error is:

$MOE=z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

The critical value of z for 95% confidence interval is: $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Compute the minimum sample size required as follows:

$MOE=z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}\\0.02=1.96\times \sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{n}}\\(\frac{0.02}{1.96})^{2} =\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{n}\\n=2401.00\approx 2401$
