You want to create a 95% confidence interval with a margin of error of no more than 0.05 for a population proportion. The historical data indicate that the population has remained constant at about 0.55. What is the minimum size random sample you need to construct this interval?
- 223
- 378
- 381.
- 324
- 380
If the
- Triples the interval size
- Divides the interval size by 3.
- Mutliplies the interval size by 1.732.
- Divides the interval size by 1.732
- Multiples the interval size by 9.
