" of the 10161016 adults surveyed, 517517 indicated that televisions are a luxury they could do without. obtain a point estimate for the population proportion of adults in the country who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without.

0.509

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a random sample of 1016 adults in a certain large country was asked "Do you pretty much think televisions are a necessity or a luxury you could do without?"

Of the 1016 adults surveyed, 517 indicated that televisions are a luxury they could do without.

To find out the point estimate of population proportion of adults in the country who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without.

We find that point estimate is nothing but sample proportion

Sample proportion = favourably voters/total people surveyed

=

square root of 36/6 = 2.449489743

square root of 16/6 = 1.632993162

square root of 6 = 2.449489743

the answer is square root of 16/6 because the square root of 36/6 is the same answer as square root of 6 = 2.449489743
