You recently sent out a survey to determine if the percentage of adults who use social media has changed from 62%, which was the percentage of adults who used social media five years ago. Of the 2751 people who responded to survey, 1740 stated that they currently use social media.a) Use the data from this survey to construct a 98% confidence interval estimate of the proportion of adults who use social media. Record the result below in the form of (#,#)(#,#). Round your final answer to four decimal places.b) Can you conclude that the percentage of adults who use social media has changed? Explain. Yes, because the proportion of adults who used social media five years ago is inside of the confidence interval. Yes, because the proportion of adults who used social media five years ago is not inside the confidence interval. No, because the proportion of adults who used social media five years ago is inside the confidence interval. No, because the proportion of adults who used social media…
Likely voters were surveyed to determine if they would vote for their party's candidate. The voters were divided into 2 groups Republicans (group 1) and Democrats (group 2). A 95% confidence interval for pl-p2 was found to be as follows: (-015, .035) Interpret the endpoints of this interval in the context of this problem. Do not use the word "difference" in your answer.
A nationwide poll of 2,525 adults estimated with 95% confidence that the proportion of Americans who support health care reform is 0.78 +/- 0.0162. A member of Congress thinks that 95% confidence isn't enough. He wants to be 99% confident. How would the margin of error of a 99% confidence interval based on the same sample size compare with the 95% interval? O It would be larger, because higher confidence results in a larger margin of error. O It would be the same, because the sample size is the same. O Can't tell, because margin of error depends on the size of the population. O Can't tell, because margin of error varies from sample to sample. O It would be smaller, because higher confidence results in a lower margin of error.
