Question

Please see the second part below. I have included the answer from the first one. 

NBC News/Marist sampled 603 likely voters on 10-31-14. They found that 44% said they would vote for Michelle Nunn.

We want to construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true proportion of likely voters who will vote for Nunn.

What is the confidence interval?

  1. 0.4796 < p < 0.4004
  2. 0.5192 < p < 0.3608
  3. 0.3608 < p < 0.5192
  4. 0.4004 < p < 0.4796-------- THIS IS THE ANSWER. 

 

Interpret your confidence interval in context of the problem.

A

If many random samples of 603 voters were taken, 95% of the resulting confidence intervals would contain the value 44%.

B

We are 95% confident that the sample proportion of voters who will vote for Michelle Nunn is between 0.4004 and 0.4796.

C

We are 95% confident that 44% of voters will vote for Michelle Nunn.

D

We are 95% confident that the true percent of voters who will vote for Michelle Nunn is between 40.04% and 47.96%.

E

It is probably true that 44% of all likely votes will vote for Nunn.

F

We don't know exactly what proportion of likely voters will vote for Nunn, but we know it's within the interval 40.04% and 47.96%.

G

44% of all likely voters will vote for Nunn.

H

If we were to select many random samples of 603 voters, 95% of them would produce the interval (40.04,47.96).
