During the recent US Presidential election exit polls were conducted throughout the nation. A California exit poll showed 64% of 700 women questioned voted for President Biden. Nationally 55% of a sample of 1550 women voted for President Biden. We are interested in estimating (with 95% confidence) the difference between the proportion of California women that voted for President Biden and the proportion of women that voted for Biden nationally. Use the shortcut formula to compute a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions The confidence interval is A. (. 359, 426) B. (.046, .133) C. (-046, .133) D. (.225, 426) E. (001, .326)

For a class project, a political science student at a large university wants to estimate the percent of students who are registered voters. He surveys 500 students and finds that 300 are registered voters. Compute a 90% confidence interval for the true percent of students who are registered voters, and interpret the confidence interval. Round your answer to nearest thousandth if necessary. Interpret the result.
CNN is conducting a poll, and wants to produce a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana. Of the 602 randomly selected New Yorkers surveyed, 394 were in favor of the initiative. a. With 90% confidence, the proportion of New York residents who favor legalizing recreational marijuana is between BLANK and BLANK. b. Suppose that we survey 602 randomly selected Americans many times, and calculate a confidence interval for each group. About Blank . percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population proportion of New Yorkers who favor legalizing recreational marijuana, and about BLANK percent will not contain the true population proportion.

A political researcher takes a survey of 310 randomly selected registered voters in Orlando, and each person was asked who they plan on voting for in the 2024 presidential election. 110 said they plan on voting for Candidate A, 185 said they plan on voting for Candidate B, and 15 were unsure or plan to vote for another candidate. The researcher wants to construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all registered voters in Orlando who plan to vote for Candidate B. What is the point estimate? Round final answer to 3 decimal places.
In studying his campaign plans, Mr. Singleton wishes to estimate the difference between men's and women's views regarding his appeal as a candidate. He asks his campaign manager to take two random independent samples and find the 90% confidence interval for the difference. A random sample of 610 male voters and 717 female voters was taken. 179 men and 425women favored Mr. Singleton as a candidate. Find this confidence interval. Step 1 of 3: Find the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places. Step 2 of 3: Find the margin of error. Round your answer to six decimal places. Step 3 of 3: Construct the 90% confidence interval. Round your answers to three decimal places.
