Sample Sizes to limit the margin of error (assume O = 0

Math Apr 30, 2022

Sample Sizes to limit the margin of error (assume O = 0.2676) 67 (a) What was the margin of error for the 95% Cl calculated in this lab? 68 margin of error, m = 69 70 (b) How large a sample is needed to cut this margin down to .05? 71 Use the formula: n = (Z x o / m) Round to next highest number 72 for m = 0.05, then n = 73 74 (c) How large a sample is needed to cut this margin of error down to .025? 75 for m = 0.025, then n = 76 77 (d) How large a sample is needed to cut the margin of error down to .0125? 78 for m = 0.0125, then n = 79 80

Expert Solution

a. (no sample size given)

b. n = 110

c. n = 440

d. n = 1761

 

 

Step-by-step explanation

a. Please provide the sample size(n) for part a

 

b. 

Given:

95 % confidence interval

Zα/2 at 95% = 1.960

σ = 0.2676

m = 0.05

Formula:

n = (Zα/2 x σ)/m)2

Substituting to the formula we have

n = (Zα/2 x σ)/m)2

n = (1.96 x 0.2676)/0.05)2

n = 110

 

c.

b. 

Given:

95 % confidence interval

Zα/2 at 95% = 1.960

σ = 0.2676

m = 0.0125

Formula:

n = (Zα/2 x σ)/m)2

Substituting to the formula we have

n = (Zα/2 x σ)/m)2

n = (1.96 x 0.2676)/0.025)2

n = 440

 

 

d.

Given:

95 % confidence interval

Zα/2 at 95% = 1.960

σ = 0.2676

m = 0.05

Formula:

n = (Zα/2 x σ)/m)2

Substituting to the formula we have

n = (Zα/2 x σ)/m)2

n = (1.96 x 0.2676)/0.0125)2

n = 1761
