Political polls typically sample randomly from the U.S. population to investigate the percentage of voters who favor some candidate or issue. The number of people polled is usually on the order of 1000. Suppose that one such poll asks voters how they feel about the President’s handling of environmental issues. The results show that 575 out of the 1280 people polled say they either approve or strongly approve of the President’s handling. a. Find a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of the entire voter population who approve or strongly approve of the President’s handling. b. If the same sample proportion were found in a sample twice as large—that is 1150 out of 2560—how would this affect the confidence interval? How would the confidence interval change if the confidence level were 90% instead of 95%?

A college administrator is interested in determining the proportion of students who receive some sort of financial aid. Instead of examining the records for all students, the administrator randomly draws 120 students and finds that 48 of them are receiving financial aid. Use a 90% confidence interval to estimate the true proportion of students who receive financial aid.
The dean of students at a large college is interested in learning about their opinions regarding the percentage of first-year students who should be given parking privileges in the main lot. He sends out an email survey to all students about this issue. A large number of first-year students reply but very few sophomores, juniors, and seniors reply. Based on the responses he receives, he constructs a 90% confidence interval for the true proportion of students who believe first-year students should be given parking privileges in the main lot to be (0.71, 0.79). Which of the following may have an impact on the confidence interval, but is not accounted for by the margin of error? response bias O nonresponse bias O sampling variation O undercoverage bias
