In a survey of 5000 registered voters who reside in California, 2739 were found to be republican. Construct a confidence estimate for the true percentage of republicans among registered voters in California. Use a confidence level of 99%.

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

given:

Sample size is: n =5000

The sample proportion is: Ṗ = 2739 / 5000 = 54.78%

And the critical value of z for 99% confidence interval is

                                                 Z = 2.58

For a 99 % confidence interval we use formula:

                                                   Ṗ ± z√(Ṗ(1- Ṗ)/n)

By putting the given values in this formula:

                                                     0.54 ± 2.58√(0.54(1-0.54)/5000)

                                              = 0.54 ± 0.018

This gives us upper confidence limit of

 0.54 + 0.018 =0.558 = 0.54%

This gives us lower confidence limit of

o.54 – 0.018 = 0.522 = 0.53%

no association

step-by-step explanation:

if you have eyes and you can use them efficiently you can see that it just looks like random dots like do a line of best fit and like they're so spread out it's such a weak association you might as well consider it nonexistent
