To determine
To find the margin of error.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 9.15E
The margin of error = 0.0125
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Confidence level = c = 0.95
n = 2004
Formula:
Z critical value can be found either by using standard normal table or excel formula.
Therefore, level of significance = a = 1-0.95 = 0.05
So, Zc =Za/2 = Z0.05/2
Using excel
Zc = 1.96
Sample proportion is,
Therefore, margin of error is,
