A random survey of 600 registered voters revealed that only 39% actually voted in the last primary election. We are interested in the population proportion of registered voters who actually voted in the last primary election. Now you want to redo the survey of registered voters to see how many voted in the last election but this time you survey 1000 registered voters and find 340 voted in the last election. If the confidence level is maintained at 92% what happens to the confidence interval. a)The confidence interval gets narrower. b)The confidence interval gets wider. c)The confidence interval stays the same. d)The confidence interval is not calculable

A Gallop poll wants to determine the proportion of people who plan on voting for neither the republican or the democratic candidate in the upcoming election (those who will vote third party). They conduct a random phone poll, where they contact 500 individuals and ask them whether or not they plan on voting for a third party candidate. Of these 500 respondents, 35 people say they plan on voting for a third party candidate. Assuming all conditions are met, what is the 98% confidence interval for the true proportion of all people who plan on voting third party? A. (-0.0303, 0.1703) B. (0.0476, 0.0924) C. (31.4116, 38.5884) D. (0.0435, 0.0965) E. (0.0420, 0.0980)
Obtain a 95% confidence interval for the difference between the proportion of males and females who support the ballot initiative, if 25% of a random sample of males plan to vote yes of a random sample of 60, and 32% of a random sample of 50 females plan to vote yes.Give your interpretation based on the results.
In a small town of 5,832 people, the mayor wants to determine the proportion of voters who would support an increase to the food tax. An assistant to the mayor decides to survey 1,000 randomly chosen people to construct a 90% confidence interval for the true proportion of people who would support the increase in food tax. Of the sample, 363 people say they would support the increase. Are the conditions for inference met? • Yes. the conditions for inference are met. O No, the 10% condition is not met. O No, the randomness condition is not met. O No. the Large Counts Condition is not met.
From a random sample of 600 citizens, we have a 99% confidence interval of (0.12, 0.15) for the proportion of likely voters that will approve a new measure toward defunding the police. The correct interpretation of this confidence interval is: The correct interpretation of this confidence interval is:
