b) Suppose that a South African Broadcasting Corporation (SABC) official wants to conduct a survey in Limpopo to estimate, with 95% confidence, a support for the premier's strategies on economy within 3% error. If the official has initial estimate that 70% of the people in Limpopo support the economic strategies of the premier. How many people should SABC survey?

) A recent poll surveyed 1587 adults (18 years of age and older, residing in the contiguous United States, contacted by phone from randomly selected homes). Residents who agreed to participate were categorized according to their political party preference (Democrat, Republican or other) and their gender (male or female). To make life easier, we’ll focus on the responses from the south (37% of the sample or 588 people). Our question is about the “Gender Gap” in American politics (the gender gap is described as differences in voting preferences for men and women). Is voting preference independent of gender? What test should you use and why?

A survey of 22- to 30 -year-old job seekers showed that 310 of the 370 respondents use social media in their job search. In addition, 275 of the 370 respondents indicated they have electronically submitted a resume to an employer.

A programmer plans to develop a new software system. In planning for the operating system that he will use, he needs to estimate the percentage of computers that use a new operating system. How many computers must be surveyed in order to be 99% confident that his estimate is in error by no more than two percentage points question mark Complete parts (a) a) Assume that nothing is known about the percentage of computers with new operating systems.
2) The rabies vaccine for dogs can save your dog's life. If your dog bites another animal or is on the receiving end of a bite, the vaccine can protect them from a dangerous and potentially fatal illness. Furthermore, in most places, the rabies vaccine for dogs is legally required. The NYC Department of Health wants to know if LESS than 95% of the dogs in the city have been vaccinated with their rabies vaccine. 158,045 of the 165,000 dogs examined had their rabies shots. Risk no more than 5% Type I error. What is the P^? (round to nearest thousandth)
