Aresearcher wishes to estimate the proportion of adults who have high-speed internet access. what size sample should be obtained if she wishes the estimate to be within 0.03 95% confidence ifa) she uses a previous estimate of 0.36? b) she does not use any prior estimates?

a) 984   b) 1068

Step-by-step explanation:

When the prior estimate of the population proportion(p) is available .

Then the formula to find the sample size  :-

, where E = margin of error

and z* = Critical z-value .

a) p= 0.36

E= 0.03

Critical value for 95% confidence level = z*= 1.96

Required sample size=

Hence, the required sample size is 984.

b) When the prior estimate of the population proportion is unavailable .

Then we use formula to find the sample size  :-

, where E = margin of error

and z* = Critical z-value

Put E= 0.03 and z*= 1.960

Required sample size =

Hence, the required sample size is 1068.
