Here are three pieces of information about a few different populations where we are interested in the proportion who vote "green". In each of the data, you must determine the probability that the sample share ports are a maximum of 7 percentage points * from the population share. A) The population consists of 6 people, of which 3 people vote "green". The sample consists of 2 people. b) The population consists of 200 people, of which 90 people vote "green". The sample consists of 10 people. c) The population consists of 10,000 people, of which 4200 people vote "green". The sample consists of 200 people. * Example: In the a-task, “the sample share ends up with a maximum of 7 percentage points from the population share” means that the sample share ends up between 43% and 57%.
